Did the Edinburgh Sky Ride Local today (in the pouring rain) and it was excellent.
It was a 30 mile ride from the Meadows out to Gladhouse Resevoir & back.
There are loads of these rides coming up over the next 3 months and are all free. Ranging from similar ones to above to nice easy relaxed routes suitable for all the family.

There is also a full programme of rides across the whole of the country.

Top marks to British Cycling & Sky for investing in both grass routes cycling and top level elite stuff.
