I hopped in a taxi with my bike as I was running rather late and it was raining and I'd forgotten my pump. </p> <p>The Taxi pulled up right outside the church on Bruntsfield place about 9:30 and there were a few folks coming out who gave me what can only be called somewhere between confused and slightly disappointed/miffed. </p> <p>I was a bit confused at the time however I suppose they might have been fired up spokes people. I'm sure they didn't mean it. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11649#post-133496 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 01:24:12 +0000 LaidBack 133496@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Good to see turn out.

I too recommend avoiding it, although the back courtyard bit is pleasant. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11649#post-133059 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 12:22:42 +0000 kaputnik 133059@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>Barclay church on brunstfield place - warning - very little bike parking in the vicinity.<br /> </em></p> <p>Fairly close to Bennet's Bar (of Tollcross, not of Morningside).</p> <p>I can recommend avoiding the place with the orange bike on the wall outside.
