2010 Rad Tour: The Seven Castles of West Lothian

Start of RadTour 2

Organiser Graham Foster has announced the The club's season opener, our spring reliability trial or Rad Tour, will be on Sunday 14th March.

Meet up for 8.45am wearing our club kit for the 2010 group photo and then set off at 9.00am

Ever noticed how many castles you pass on the County's best back roads? Well, starting from Linlithgow, the Tour will join the dots, passing seven of them. Although the route is still to be finalised it's looking like being an anti-clockwise round of just over 60 miles.

Heading south first via Bathgate, taking in Cairns Castle, on (we think...) the highest stretch of road in West Lothian, the route will then swing north featuring such Forth Valley favourites as Duntarvie & Ochiltree with a final swooping descent back to the start point.

The Rad Tour is open to all club members and entries will be accepted on the day. Further details will follow but for now, get the date in your diary and some miles in those legs.
