Myrebird again

This morning's cycle was attended by just 4 of us - Dick, Robin, John P and I. The plan was to do Myrebird again so we set off along the Deeside Way and looped round through Crathes Castle grounds, stopping there for tea/coffee and scones, then posing for the usual team photo:

At the start of the downhill stretch towards the West Gate, Dick went fleeing past his family who were walking through the grounds. Plaintive cries of "Grandad, Grandad" had everyone turning round, but Dick eventually realised it was for him.

We went round Tesco and up the Hirn road and stopped at Deeside Brewery where we popped in for a couple of refreshers:

Not much more than 20 yards or so from the brewery, I tried to cycle my bike from the guttering on to the road surface proper but there was a larger ridge than I had noticed and I took a tumble - just after a taste of their strong 1057 ale!

Here's the stats and the route:
