The group of 13 joined thousands of cyclists who made their way from Glasgow to Edinburgh – a total of 50 miles. One of the stops on their route was the iconic Linlithgow Palace where the riders were able to break for lunch and a well-deserved rest.

Liz Grant, Executive Manager at Stirling Castle, and one of the riders, explained: ‘Originally there were just a couple of us planning to take part, but as we started talking about it to others more people signed up’.

Tracy Quinn, Admissions Assistant at Stirling adds: ‘Although we didn’t train together there was a lot of friendly rivalry in the lead up to the event which spurred us all on’.
