I know from experience, that if I head to Craigleith Y, I can get there faster by going down from St andrew Sq to Tesco at Broughton, onto the Golden Acre path and round, than I can cycling through the West End road notwork*.</p> <p>* intentional misspelling. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12540#post-148295 Tue, 08 Apr 2014 15:50:50 +0000 Cyclingmollie 148295@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Scream if you want to go faster. I've not seen that new path work so thanks for posting it. </p> <p>Kappers' notorious corner at 34s? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12540#post-148292 Tue, 08 Apr 2014 14:55:18 +0000 SRD 148292@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Urge. That should have a warning on it for those prone to motion sickness. </p> <p>But it does show very effectively how rubbish it is that the cycle route didn't continue over the various tram bridges. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12540#post-148258 Tue, 08 Apr 2014 11:43:14 +0000 chrisfl 148258@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've just been having a bit more of a play with my helmet cam now that the weather is getting better and though it would be interesting to film a few of the routes I use to get to Edinburgh Park. </p> <p>Because no one has time to sit through 25 minute I've speeded it up somewhat...</p> <p>This is the Broomhouse path, featuring the new path alongside the tramline to Ballgreen, with some live Trams and Trains. A very pleasant evening all pedestrians were smiling and friendly and the cars caused me no bother!</p> <p><a href="http://youtu.be/KRySCo6efUE" rel="nofollow">http://youtu.be/KRySCo6efUE</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRySCo6efUE&amp;feature=youtu.be" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRySCo6efUE&amp;feature=youtu.be</a> </p>
