Emma MacLaren Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 so after falling twice today, I think I need to find better routes to cycle that avoid country roads and cycle tracks. Anyone know good routes that can be relied on to be pretty much ice free? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreigS Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 The coast road might not be too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Emma, main roads generally ok however waiting until a little later in the day might be a sensible option. As Greg suggested the coast road should be clear. Anything off the beaten track including residential streets will be patchy at best.

2023 Subscriptions BoydJohnston Posted December 4, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Follow the main roads into Glasgow like I did on Sunday morning. As long as you pick a reasonably quiet time and stick to the wider roads where the cars can pass easily, the traffic is not a problem. Paisley Road, Crookston Road, Mosspark Boulevard etc - lots of good roads in the south side of the city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Malcolm Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 I was on the A and B roads up around Milngavie etc and even up the A81 was all Ice free and well gritted, if you're looking for a longer ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
