Was worried someone was going to tell me that the bike parking gets very full up seeing as I don't need to be there till 1230. if needs be I'll just make double sure not to chain my bike to someone else's :D. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203111 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 11:45:39 +0000 fimm 203111@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@SRD she did, but I can't find where... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203110 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 11:39:29 +0000 I were right about that saddle 203110@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@SRD</p> <p>I lured her there with promises of knitting. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203109 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 11:29:50 +0000 SRD 203109@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>didn't sallyhinch recently post something about how totally car centric robert gordon's campus is/was? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203107 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 11:26:54 +0000 fimm 203107@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Oh, I can see it now. How puzzling.<br /> I propose a CCE expedition to Aberdeen to remove some of those bike stands to somewhere they might be used - like Haymarket. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203099 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 11:01:12 +0000 I were right about that saddle 203099@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@fimm</p> <p>How's that?

It's slightly out of town on the river Dee, not far from the cycle path on the old Deeside railway line.</p> <p><img src="http://cdn.ipernity.com/200/20/44/40162044.065c9739.240.jpg?r2"></p> <p>Those lockers in the background are perfect for storing tumbleweed. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203082 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 10:29:03 +0000 Morningsider 203082@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Plenty of bike parking - but it is usually full to overflowing, with every available handrail/railing also occupied during term time. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203035 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 22:40:45 +0000 Snowy 203035@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Sort of depends which part of Leith. If more the west side then yes, as described above. But if eastern part of Leith, I'd probably go up Easter Road and into the park at Holyrood, then through the Meadows and Bruntsfield Links. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203015 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 18:52:27 +0000 SRD 203015@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@theboy I live not far from there and that would be my route if heading to leith...(in reverse of course)</p> <p>Harrison road then gills land to spy law would be most forgiving/pleasant. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203012 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 18:23:12 +0000 chdot 203012@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Napier is actually very good about bike parking - and info -</p> <p><a href="http://www.napier.ac.uk/about/campuses/Pages/Getting-here.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.napier.ac.uk/about/campuses/Pages/Getting-here.aspx</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15695#post-203009 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 18:11:43 +0000 The Boy 203009@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Longshot possibly, but I figured if there was anywhere I could get info on availability of bike parking at the above then here would be it.</p> <p>Anyone any experience? </p> <p>Also, I'm guessing the best way to get there from Leith would be up the Ferry Rd path and off at Russel Rd then up Harrison Pk? </p>
