Only don't mention trains as "we don't do trains".</p> <p>I've suggested proper cycling interchange (connections to path networks, lockable, covered lockers etc.) and doing something about the horrible new-look galvanised metalwork stations. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7183#post-75416 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 11:19:24 +0000 kaputnik 75416@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>DaveC perhaps give the Stagecoach a Strava test-run one day and publish the results of coach speed in public? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7183#post-75413 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 11:03:55 +0000 DaveC 75413@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>If its anything like Stagecoach's Free wiffy, then I'd stick to my 3G, even if its occasionally flacky in town jumping from cell to cell. Now if Stagecoach could only slow their speeding coaches down like their wiffy speeds, I'd be happier letting my children cycle in Dalgety Bay. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7183#post-75412 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 10:59:11 +0000 mgj 75412@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The lack of Log In will be so that civil servants can use it; our laptops can't do anything that complicated. Maybe I'll be lucky and be on one of these trains on my way to the ScotlandIS Awards Ceremony tonight in Glasgow. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7183#post-75410 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 10:53:06 +0000 Instography 75410@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"I normally have to ask a ticket warden to colour in the engraving for me!"</p> <p>And some will tell you, as one did me, that really he should be making me pay the full fare and taking the ticket.
