Nah, it's between Callander and Killin (we road South and turned off at Callander to get to Edinburgh). GPS tag says Lochearnhead.
The Sustrans page has some comments on the road surface that are hopeful (and some pictures on one of them). I honestly think it would be fine with that setup. Just be aware you'll be riding slower at times, and you may find yourself dodging the occasional pothole or have some loose gravel at times. Really is lovely, though. And much nicer than the A road.

Hmm, got Open Pave 27s, steel frame, reckon I might make it? I'm staying in Balloch and heading generally towards Glencoe, looking at the NCR7 lots of this is on road so seems a good way to avoid a stretch of the A82. But, the route you linked to has warning markers between Aberfoyle and Invertrossachs suggesting not suitable for roadbikes - what's the odds the stretch in your pic is somewhere here? There's an easy road alternative (well, not that easy, looks like a tasty little climb) but be a shame to miss such a stunning path...
