To start off the day’s ride, you’ll skirt east of Glasgow before crossing the River Clyde just prior to Hamilton and Strathclyde Loch. The route then heads in a southerly direction, experiencing a few climbs, up and over the Lowther Hills and Scotland’s southern uplands, running parallel to the M74. With relatively traffic free roads and almost the smallest daily amount of climbing, the route channels through Lockerbie and into Gretna Green before crossing the border into England, and entering the first of our racecourse base camps.
