In fact it makes Edinburgh look horrible. But it is only the truth. They could have filmed it all the the Meadows on a sunny day or something, which would have been wrong and would have been glossing over the reality. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10541#post-115496 Sun, 23 Jun 2013 10:05:55 +0000 gembo 115496@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@eddie-h</p> <p>I know what you mean, they seemed to film a lot of it in rush hour traffic, and in the snow??? the chap doing his one day a week at work without the Tagalong refers to the traffic. Seems to be about how good Edinburgh is to cycle in, small city, countryside closely, beach and hills etc</p> <p>Obviously Edinburgh also has fantastic cycling routes, NEPN, WoL, innocent path etc. that didn't feature in the film?? city centre though is very bad at the moment, also diversions in cowgate as from Friday night? Need to check and probably change route to going through the park which is lovely. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10541#post-115457 Sat, 22 Jun 2013 18:10:57 +0000 neddie 115457@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Almost every shot in that video shows how appalling conditions are for cycling in Edinburgh </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10541#post-115449 Sat, 22 Jun 2013 16:00:55 +0000 Kenny 115449@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Good video.
