Nice day for it though. Have you taken lots of the same rider or are they all just wearing the same? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-48200 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 19:54:39 +0000 kaputnik 48200@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Went along to Meadowmill after the hill climb. Plus a cuppa tea was on offer and it was a tailwind assisted ride from Fa'Side.</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaputniq/sets/72157628176926911/detail/"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7033/6412765925_76114d805f.jpg"><br /> Click for set of 13</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46915 Thu, 17 Nov 2011 01:30:12 +0000 kaputnik 46915@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The ERC annual hillclimb has now changed from Saturday 26th to Sunday 27th. However the location has also changed, it's the hill up to Fa'side castle from Salter's Road.</p> <p>Off is at 11AM and it's limited to 60 riders so will be completed by 12. </p> <p>I then intend to ride on to Meadowmill for spectating the CX. </p> <p>I don't know if anyone would be interested in spectating the hillclimb? If not I can see anyone who goes to the CX there and could join for return ride. Fa'side is about a mile and a half to Meadowmill. It's downhill from Fa'side or uphill to it! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46680 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 14:44:36 +0000 ruggtomcat 46680@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>could well be up for this! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46548 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 00:35:37 +0000 kaputnik 46548@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I shall have the (bicycle) horn also so will honk abuse / encouragement at you. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46545 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 23:29:30 +0000 DaveC 46545@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>You can shout at me too, I'll easily be spotterable (is this a word??) on the 'David Dickinson' coloured XC. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46509 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 17:24:23 +0000 kaputnik 46509@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@Anth - yes, I've got a friend competing so was planning on going and shouting <strike>friendly abuse</strike> encouragement at him </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46505 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 17:13:50 +0000 Min 46505@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hmm, so where has Mr "ooh I want to try CX" gone then?<br /> :-p</p> <p>I am supposed to be doing a long run but I would quite like to see some cyclocross. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46485 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 15:33:27 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 46485@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'm not <em>that</em> daft... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46479 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 15:20:03 +0000 Min 46479@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Not thinking of entering? :-) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4415#post-46472 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 14:45:50 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 46472@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Quite like that as a working title. Anyone fancy a spin out to Tranent on the 27th to watch the Meadowhill round of the Scottish CX season? Get there early and you can walk the course to get a feel for it (and scope out the best places to set up the camera - have plans for remote flash and so on...). </p>
