However there was a big truck and several blokes laying new asphalt at chicane at the Hay Ave side of the underpass. I had to half carry my bike over the rubble at the side to get past. I'd give that a while to cool down before going over it, if it's not coned off. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19537#post-304992 Fri, 19 Apr 2019 13:26:23 +0000 mcairney 304992@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Due to the nice weather I took the (more) scenic route in so avoided the Innocent this morning. As I've been taking advantage of the weather by commuting on the "summer" bike (sticky slick and probably rather soft tyres) rather than the regular commuting/winter bike (Marathon Pluses) this was probably a good thing </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19537#post-304990 Fri, 19 Apr 2019 10:39:36 +0000 amir 304990@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I expect they are just having a little "fun" </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19537#post-304989 Fri, 19 Apr 2019 10:36:22 +0000 toomanybikes 304989@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Cheers @wingpig, my ride in this morning was perfect.</p> <p>I've probably removed about 4 sets of glass there over the last week. </p> <p>What is the perpetrator really hoping to achieve here in the long run?</p> <p>Strong popular support for a bottle deposit scheme? Increased sales of Marathon Plus tyres?</p> <p>Even if you put 20% of cyclists off, there's still gonna be a LOT of cyclists using that path. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19537#post-304988 Fri, 19 Apr 2019 10:20:31 +0000 amir 304988@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Seems to be a regular event now.

Pretty much strewn right across the path so nigh on impossible to avoid.</p> <p>EDIT: I should add it's just before the crossing if you're going East-&gt; West, obviously just after it going West-East ! </p>
