Default Re: Ice Cream Run

I've had a quick look at a couple of possible post ice cream runs, again these are just fledgling ideas.

St Andrews - Cupar - Br O' Earn - Blairgowrie - Br O' Cally - Aberfeldy - *sma glen* - Br O' Allen (haggis supper) or *Killin*

Largs - Gourock - Dunoon (ferry every 20 mins £4) - Inverary - Tyndrum - Lochearnhead - Br O' Allen

Looking for local input into the suitability of these roads and routes taking into account it will be december.

Both of these are about 140 miles so 3.1/2 hrs riding plus stops plus haggis supper, 5 hours to be leaving Br O' Allen after ice cream, they also both provide cut outs for northies (Pitlochry or Tyndrum) who may need to bail early.

Bridge of Allen as an end point isn't set in stone, just thougt it was quite central with good transport links and a decent chippie or sit in eateries if we prefered, but again open to suggestions

For these options to work i'd suggest eating ice cream no later than 1pm that way it may still be light as we reach dinner and only riding home in the dark.
