Glasgow Southside Cycle route - 40km

As per the 20km route heading out along Kilmarnock road from Shawlands cross, up through Clarkston and Waterfoot, along Floors Road past Linn Hi-fi and up to the roundabout at the end of Floors road onto Humbie Rd. This time turn left, going under the A726 - tough wee climb here! - and follow that road along to Eaglesham.
There's a cracking wee descent into Eaglesham where Humbie Road meets Gilmour St. Turn right into Eaglesham, look for Polnoon street on your right side before you get to the end of Gilmour St.

You're now heading into ~10km of uphill slog up the Bonnyton moor road, past the Windfarm and up to the old A77.

Once you get onto the A77 there's a cycle path / pavement all the way down to Newton Mearns. That's the hard part over.
