Apologies for radio silence, we've been trying to figure out if there is going to be a big hole in the royal mile or not! </p> <p>Meeting times are 11:15 and 11:30 for briefings and tabard collection. IF you're coming on a feeder ride and arrive later please come and find me for a tabard. I'll be near the front somewhere! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17569&page=2#post-247345 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 12:38:15 +0000 kaputnik 247345@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>(Possibly at Snax</em></p> <p>Do they still park their van on the cycle lane? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17569&page=2#post-247338 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 12:10:22 +0000 sallyhinch 247338@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I believe @IWRATS has decided to get himself into the right zen frame of mind for POP by cutting himself off from all electronic communication until tomorrow afternoon. @arobcomp should be sending out more detailed instructions, but in the absence of any other official communique, if non-feeder-ride marshals can assemble at the Meadows at around 11:15 to be briefed, that would be grand. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17569&page=2#post-247316 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 10:42:23 +0000 weezee 247316@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I can volunteer myself for Edinburgh (it's Mr Weezee's turn this year to do Pop on the big bike). </p> <p>Consider me standing by and awaiting further instruction. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17569&page=2#post-247287 Thu, 20 Apr 2017 09:34:29 +0000 neddie 247287@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@biketrain</p> <p>That would be cool.

I was thinking of colecting a strava heat Map to show where all the Edinburgh POP riders started from. Hankchief can lend me his GPS. I plan to sit at start of ride and wait until everyone has passed by me. I could then be the last Marshall at end of other riders. I could then bring up the rear of the ride. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17569&page=2#post-247239 Wed, 19 Apr 2017 13:47:08 +0000 DaveC 247239@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Do you need any more for Edinburgh?
