We start this ride on a fine September afternoon to the south of Glasgow conurbation. It starts at Jackton and loops round some quiet backroads, crosses a ford and then climbs up through the conservation village of Eaglesham and continues upward to Bonnyton golf club. At the highest point on a clear day you have a great view over Glasgow and to Ben Lomond to the north. From there we head back downhill and westward to Mearnskirk, our end point for this short ride.
