However I sometimes wonder how he can cycle Gilmour Place - Meadows nearly every day and not fire off a few rockets to the roads department. He pays council tax too! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12882#post-155109 Wed, 28 May 2014 22:19:04 +0000 Greenroofer 155109@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@HankChief - sorry to hear that. I refer you to <a href="http://www.velominati.com/the-rules/#64">Rule 64</a>. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12882#post-155101 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:51:54 +0000 HankChief 155101@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Much be catching. ..</p> <p>I too had a tumble last night. Took a corner too wide/fast and ran into some leaf mulch and lost the front wheel. It's a corner I do every day so should have known better.</p> <p>A few scratches on me and the bike. A useful/ painful reminder to take a bit more care.</p> <p>Stay safe out there folks... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12882#post-155094 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:17:55 +0000 SRD 155094@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Andrew burns came off his bike en route to his surgery. </p> <p>Says not a pothole, but doesn't say what did happen. </p>
