Details....

56 or 57 miles round Arran.

Hoping to take 5-7 hrs

Getting the 9:45 ferry at Ardrossan Harbour. Hoping to return on the 16.40 ferry with a bail out on the 19:20.

Not an all out effort just get everyone round and back :D

How big is that loop? If up to 70 miles then shouldn't be a problem for me anyway.

Rado I have a cyclocross bike you can use. I've cycled round Arran on it before, could even change the tyres to make it ride better.
