Yep, you heard right: it's time for a QoP weekend extravaganza trip!
We've booked Killmory Haven for a 2 night stay on the south side of Arran starting on the 30th of August 2024. We have access to 20 comfy beds, a kitchen, lounge space and bike parking (a mix of outdoor and indoor spaces available). Get excited for huge vegan meals and loads of trails, roads and ferry rides to explore. You might even see dolphins, snakes or otters! You WILL have fun.
The provisional schedule is for people to arrive during the late afternoon on Friday 30th August, have a cosy dinner and make plans for Saturday. We'll help people group up and explore the island based on riding styles / interests.
Stuff yourself at breakfast on Saturday, be an early bird and get out there with the sunrise! Or sleep in and have brunch and take it easy. Ride as much or as little as you want: you will have options to choose from and buddies to join you. Another big communal dinner on Saturday night awaits!
On Sunday dig into breakfast and then make your choice: do you ride some new Arran trails or roads? Do you make your way back to Edinburgh the long way via the 4 remaining ferries? Do you just take it easy and head straight home? Do you go full blast and stay a whole extra night? No wrong choices here.
