Five of our favourite pics from Gravel Rides Edinb Five of our favourite pics from Gravel Rides Edinburgh, Fife & the Lothians, with some more context & the route features. #gravel

📸 1 - This is one of my favourite images from the book. This track on the field edge near Bo’ness was a nice find, and light and setting were perfect for taking the image. This is route 10 - South Queensferry & the Inner Forth.

📸 2 - Another great find on one of the routes in Fife. I loved the contrast in this picture - with the Ochil Hills rising into the clouds, and the sunshine lighting up the tussock in front. This is route 5 - Coal Pits & Devilla Forest.

📸 3 - @joshreids has been a great companion on the rides in the book. This was on our longest ride in December which took much longer than expected. But we made it up to the Lomond Hills - just in time to enjoy the last light and admiring a sea of lights. Route 12 - Across Fife.

📸 4 - This ride inspired me to finally write a book about gravel rides in Edinburgh. I founded the @edinburghdawnpatrol in 2024 - first the road version, and then I mapped a gravel route. The River Almond path has long been one of my favourites. This shot, taken on the field edge in February, worked out perfectly. Route 11 - Edinburgh Gravel Dawn Patrol.

📸 5 - This was the last easy route I added to the book in East Lothian - I wanted to include the magic Butterdean Wood, but the rest of the route from Longniddry is highly enjoyable as well. And this image is very typical for the riding in East Lothian - with the Firth of Forth in the background. Route 2 - Longniddry & Butterdean Wood.

The official launch date of Gravel Rides Edinburgh, Fife and the Lothians is 21 May, but if you order directly from us, your book will arrive within days.
