Probably best not to arrange a meet up as I have to recover from previous nights drinking, rescue my car from dunf and then sort a load of sh*t out on the bike. If you are going to reverse the route then I will aim to join the route at Lochore meadows and head up Benarty hill from there.

Ray the Bivvy spot is signed from the private road that the cycleway follows between Pillars of Hercules café and Strathmiglo as 'Woodland hub' - its also the Chancefield Sawmill entrance. Its about 1k west of the Pillars café on the south side of the road. Turn up the track and follow it until just after a big puddle. Look for a track to the right (there is a new gate here), then just after fight your way past an old deer fence gate and your there.

If you are really pushed for time the nearest station is ladybank although Markinch has more trains and is only a bit further.

I'm not able to make it. Weekend bivi's are getting harder to do these days. Sneaked in a good one Tuesday and Wednesday.

Hope you all have a good one.

Cheers
Mike
