Using a little pedal power you'll be able to support this amazing project which aims to transform Dalbeattie and create economic growth, tourism, and healthy lifestyle opportunities for the Granite town.
The two routes, Yellow 59km (37miles) and Blue 113km (70miles) use the same roads with an extended loop to extend the distance for the blue route with both rides starting and finishing at Dalbeattie's Birchvale Theatre.
