Day 4

Our day started out from Ardlui with heavy rain, more rain, in our face wind and rain! Visibility was poor and weren't able to appreciate Loch Lomand. We navigated off the busy road onto a cycle route which took us close to Glasgow then across the very busy Erskin bridge.

The route to Cumnock was slow with the wind reducing our efforts to a snail’s pace.

After a number of climbs, we finally arrived in Cumnock. All I'll say is Cumnock requires some significant investment; it has had some challenging times and this is evident in the town. I'll leave it at that.

Our hotel however was superb, with a fantastic shower! The landlady very welcoming and everyone was very friendly.
