Go straight through the gate to ford the Greenock Cut water channel and onto the Greenock Cut path. The submerged stones don't look promising but it wasn't difficult to cross on them with a bike upstream to lean on for stability.

More of an MTB or gravel variation. I created it but not sure why it's classed as "Bike Touring" rather than "Gravel". Definitely not bike touring!
