We request you follow the 60km route if you have not reached the split at Glenginnet by 11:00 or the split at Straiton by 13:35 Risk Assessment As a Reliability Trial, the rides will NOT be marshalled. However, we have signed the route. Signs will be orange for the 100km route, and there will be some yellow variations showing the ‘short cuts’ for the 60km ride. The Ayrshire Alps Friendly takes place on open roads – it is your responsibility to respect fellow participants and fellow road users • Many of the roads in the area have suffered in the last couple winters and you should expect broken surfaces and potholes • The hill roads of the Ayrshire Alps are narrow with little room for passing. Sheep and other animals roam wild and may go onto the road • There are numerous cattle grids on route, including on the descents of Hadyard, Glenalla, Nic O Balloch and Largs • There are several right hand turns, as noted overleaf. Please stop and ensure it is safe to cross before doing so. DO NOT blindly follow other participants unless you are sure yourself • There will be no technical support on route. Carry a roadside repair kit • There are no foodstops provided, but opportunities to get refreshments at the Community run Village Stores in Barr and Straiton • Mobile phone signal in the area is weak. The organisers can be reached on 07754 503509. In the case of medical emergency you may need to use emergency signal • The 100km route follows the fast A713 for 6km between Dalmellington and Patna. Beware of traffic moving much faster than you. • Weather conditions can change quickly on the hill roads. Take clothing appropriate for the weather, such as rain capes. Mobile phone reception for much of the route will be very limited. Riders should look out for each other to relay messages back to the strip. The de-routing team will set off at 3pm to drive the route and remove the signs, so if you are stranded we should find you. If you need to contact event HQ at McCosh Hall call 07754 503509 .

In brief, we belief that the integrity of the Galloway Forest Park, the Galloway Forest Dark Sky Park and the Galloway and South Ayrshire Biosphere as tourist destinations are threatened by a development on such a large scale on the major tourist route from the Central Belt to Dumfries and Galloway, the A713; we believe the development is too close to the much loved and used Monument Hill walk, as well as to the nationally significant Designed Landscapes of Blairquhan and Craigengillan; and we believe the survey carried out shows that the threat posed by Keirs Hill to the many tourist businesses in Straiton and nearby is real, and the dismissal of this threat by the PBA Roger Tym survey is completely contradicted by the evidence that they themselves adduce. In April 2013, we also produced a report on tourism in Straiton, Wind Farm Development & Tourism in Straiton: a case-study of tourist provision for the Galloway Forest Park and the Galloway Forest Dark Sky Park.
