A 51-mile joint ride with Out Velo in the Scottish Borders. Our circular route will take us through Broughton and Tweedsmuir, before tackling a particularly steep 1-in-5 climb at the east end of the Talla Reservoir, known to cyclists as the Wall of Talla. We’ll then continue towards the Yarrow Valley past the Megget Reservoir and St Mary’s Loch, before turning north towards Traquair and a gentle finish to the ride along the south bank of the Tweed.
