in Edinburgh & Lothians
The beautiful city of Edinburgh is at a crossroads of the National Cycle Network, blessed with many miles of traffic-free paths both in and near the city and is surrounded by some wonderful countryside offering good mountain biking on the Pentland Hills, and good road riding through the Lothians along the coast towards Dunbar and south towards the Moorfoot Hills and the Lammermuirs. The crossing of the Forth Road Bridge on the cycletrack either side of the bridge is an unforgettable experience!
