No, I don't know this way at all. All the way around the ERI and via Mortonhall and Buckstone. I will definitely have to give that one a go. Now bookmarked ;) Thank you! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144076 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 18:18:16 +0000 chdot 144076@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"Gosh, thanks for popping up my blog post."</p> <p>Well it was worth it!</p> <p>"Looks like the paths of Edinburgh are unknown to many people"</p> <p><em>Very</em> true. </p> <p>"The south of the city is still by and large a bit of a mystery to me"</p> <p>You'll know parts of this -</p> <p><a href="http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=1775687" rel="nofollow">http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=1775687</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144074 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 17:38:47 +0000 Claire 144074@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Gosh, thanks for popping up my blog post. Looks like the paths of Edinburgh are unknown to many people - lots of folk commenting to me about the route and the views. Hope you enjoyed the post :) </p> <p>The south of the city is still by and large a bit of a mystery to me so it's been interesting to explore more of it. Suspect there are still many quiet and gorgeous routes to be found within our city boundaries. </p> <p>Can't wait for spring, it's in the post! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144071 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 14:49:46 +0000 minus six 144071@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That field at Blackford Glen Road</p> <p>Got chased down the hill there by a big clydesdale horse, autumn 1992</p> <p>He had me beat for pace, I wasn't going to make it to the fence</p> <p>So i stopped dead, turned and faced him, fearing the worst</p> <p>I swear he reared up and just laughed at me..</p> <p>Never knew horses had such a wicked sense of humour </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144070 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 14:29:41 +0000 Charterhall 144070@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Yes we have some great little paths for quiet little pootles. And thanks to the proximity of hills and sea lots of variety. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144069 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 14:13:06 +0000 gembo 144069@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Quite liked the off road route theme. The colinton mains park path I would normally avoid but fitted in to the green bank park then hermitage and then Bingham paths flowing all the way to porty </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144068 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 14:07:06 +0000 chdot 144068@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Well there have been some extreme bits but less 'winter' than usual(?)</p> <p>Whatever "usual" is anymore! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144066 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 14:02:33 +0000 SRD 144066@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I think we have lots of good winter weather. Just not this year! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12318#post-144064 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 13:53:56 +0000 chdot 144064@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>" </p> <p>So there you have it. One 27 mile route from the Union Canal down to Cramond, taking in pretty much every type of environment or view you can think of. Desert and mountain didn’t feature, but a whole range of other sights did. Aren’t Edinburgh cyclists spoiled for some beautiful views?</p> <p>"</p> <p><a href="http://clairecycles.wordpress.com/2014/03/01/a-glimpse-of-edinburghs-many-faces-by-bike-path/" rel="nofollow">http://clairecycles.wordpress.com/2014/03/01/a-glimpse-of-edinburghs-many-faces-by-bike-path/</a> </p>
