Hello.
For those familiar with the area, what would be the suggested route to cycle from Glasgow City centre to Ardrossan? NCN route 7? Ayr Road? Other?

Thanks

I would use cycle.travel website and see what is suggested

Just re read - I am not a local !

Both the ncn7 and Ayr road are ok to cycle. Aye road is a bit hectic coming out of the city centre depending on time. The ncn7 is a nice cycle but sometimes seems to go through housing estates and back streets for no reason.

If you want to avoid doing the Glasgow to Paisley section, which is a bit convoluted, you can get the slow shonky train to Paisley Canal station from Glasgow central. The station platform is actually the start of a nice long length of railway path on NCN7.

Brilliant. Thanks for this everyone.
