Gravel Cycling Adventure at Loch Doon, Scotland Epic Scenic Ride Through Rugged Terrain!

Belated video this week guys due to all us cyclists coming down with the dreaded sickness that cannot be named! divoc - 91

In this video I dip my Cycling toe into A Gravel ride within the borders of Galloway Forest Park! I start off from the small village of Straiton, which is very popular with hikers too! I then travel over towards Dalmellington before turning off and heading into the wilderness of Loch Doon and the Gravel route everyone raves about. I also take in two of the "Ayrshire Alps" and I will admit these are not for the faint of heart. I hope to complete more of them in the near future.

I used Komoot to plot this route in which I ended up being Komooted 3 times, a first for this Chimp! Lucky I managed to get back on course each time quickly

I used Komoot to plot this route and I must say it is a great app to plan your route or use some of the premade user routes!

As always I have included a link to the route below (I have updated it so you do not get lost or Komooted like I did) but you can also follow me on Strava or Komoot just search for That Cycling Chimp 🐵.

Feel free to comment if you use Komoot to plan your rides and if you think it is a great app? Do you think there are other better navigational route making apps out there?

Please also consider subscribing if you haven't already, a lot of you are watching the videos and if you do not want to miss out as there are more adventures to come! Your subscribing keeps me and the channel riding and I appreciate every single Subscribe button that is smashed!

Hope to see you in the next one, and remember to ride safe out there guys!
