I may leave the geese for a bus trip though since I don't much fancy cycling all the way home from Aberlady in the dark. ;-) And I'll avoid that pub. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=182#post-1303 Thu, 31 Dec 2009 20:59:14 +0000 SRD 1303@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>There used to be excellent beer (orkney, atlas etc) and food (home grown and cooked) at the pub/inn nearest Dirleton castle, but the last time we went there it had changed hands and was dire. Otherwise, a fabulous cycle (the coast is also do-able by bus, and the first buses will pick-up/drop-off pretty much anywhere along the route). Do try to get to Aberlady Bay around sunset, as the geese flying in to land are amazing. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=182#post-1296 Thu, 31 Dec 2009 15:02:36 +0000 Min 1296@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Whoops, I probably should have posted the url of the website.</p> <p><a href="http://cycling.visitscotland.com/" rel="nofollow">http://cycling.visitscotland.com/</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=182#post-1295 Thu, 31 Dec 2009 14:57:12 +0000 Min 1295@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I found this website the other day, it is part of the visitscotland website and I don't see it already posted here. Looks pretty good and plenty of routes around Edinburgh. I am going to try the beaches and castles route as soon as the ice clears a bit. </p>
