The Green Welly
Stopped at the Green Wellly in Tyndrum at the weekend. Very friendly and loads of bikers from all over Scotland.
Great weather helped. Will probably make a detour when in that area again.

The "welly" is always busy with bikes and the food was good the last time I stopped there.

Re: The Green Welly
I will be on the sauce in Poole but if I were here Id go over to Grantown, Spean Bridge, Fort William, Glencoe to the Welly.
Then head south to Killin, Aberfeldy, Pitlcohry, Moulin and back up by Braemar. Long loop but one of the best routes in Scotland.

Re: The Green Welly
One of the greatest biking routes in the world i'd say. Not that i've been on many of them. I stay near Glasgow so my favourite route is up the a82 then a83 inverary - green welly, then whatever direction takes my fancy.coullstar wrote:Id go over to Grantown, Spean Bridge, Fort William, Glencoe to the Welly.

I've found a few routes around ayrshire and dumfrieshire this year though.
