What to bring
- Your bike: This ride is off road on mainly forest tracks. Ideally suited to Mountain Bikes, however all the route should be suitable for road/hybrid bikes with wide tyres.
- Eye protection - impact from a bee, grit or even a fly at speed is extremely unpleasant, sunglasses may do if not made of glass.
- Clothing: choose suitable clothes and footwear for the weather forecast and time of year. You will be exercising so lightweight layered clothing is best. Shorts are best even in rain, as they allow free movement of your legs. Jeans are useless if it rains but tracksuit bottoms need to be not too baggy or they may snag in the chain and cause an accident. You'll need trainers or similar with grippy soles for standard pedals.
- Cyclist's Helmet - Outdoorlads policy asks you to wear a helmet on this event.
- Bag you will need a small day-sack to carry essential clothing, water and an emergency
- Puncture repair kit (or better still a spare inner tube) and tyre levers. Also any special tools that your bike needs.

If it's sunny remember sun cream, but it is Scotland so you probably won't need it!
Food & drink
Please bring snack and drink for the afternoon, however we may have a chance to visit a cafe at Inverdruie
