It's really lovely. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2712#post-28903 Fri, 08 Apr 2011 15:31:10 +0000 DaveC 28903@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>There were a few of us, and on the way back (to Edinburgh) there were even more as we were overtaking a small family all cycling down the trail. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2712#post-28902 Fri, 08 Apr 2011 15:26:08 +0000 thebikechain 28902@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I think i went past you as you came out of the tunnel! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2712#post-28879 Fri, 08 Apr 2011 12:34:14 +0000 DaveC 28879@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Sorry folks, I'd made sure i went though all my rides and made public.

I've run/cycled along the Colinton Dell section but didn't know how continuous the sections from Murryfield to Colinton were. Its a nice surfaced (in most parts) path which we continued on until its end in Balerno. We then rode up Bravelaw and Mansfield roads to Threipmuir Reservoir. We returned by heading along the west side of the four reservoirs and down through Colinton to pick up the rail line/path again. Then back along the canal to Gillespie's for a pint, just as darkness began to bite.</p> <p>The canal has changed lots since my last route along it 5 years ago, with tarmac most of the way it seems.</p> <p>I've mapped it here for people to follow should they want the route:</p> <p><a href="http://www.mapmyride.com/workout/42096326/" rel="nofollow">http://www.mapmyride.com/workout/42096326/</a> </p>
