Blaming chdot for detouring the trambles ride past NB distillery and the Macfarlan-Smith place. Chdot clearly held his breath, which was why he was so keen to take the quick route out and Uberuce as I pointed out has his own high-end particulate filters around mouth and nose. Uberuce, still owe you coffee and cake.

It was the first time in ages I'd not happened to have had a flexitime half day, so the need to clock-watch was an unpleasant novelty, but nice to see y'all, just the same. Also glad to confirm from the unfortunately initialled WC that I'm not just imagining it. You really do need to get fit *again* if you're only fixie-fit and have just started using gears, which means Roibeard might be a little underwhelmed if I take a shot Pino-stoking until I'm geared fit. Fixie-strengthened just means fixie-specialised. Ah well. cb on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212&page=2#post-77130 Fri, 06 Jul 2012 09:52:03 +0000 cb 77130@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ I had intended to join in for a quick fimm-esque coffee-necking-then-sprint-for-the-train routine, but for various reasons didn't make it. Next time...

Had been suggested that the citycycling editorial policy was a touch too 'adversarial' as well, so figuring out whether that's a good or a bad thing before I relaunch (as well as still working on the redesign). chdot on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-77126 Fri, 06 Jul 2012 09:28:37 +0000 chdot 77126@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ "Fresh, non-argumentative, start" But most of your arguing was on other forumrums (allegedly).

Nice to meet you fimm. As we left it started to rain, and I got a re-soaking on the quick sprint to St Andrew Sq.... fimm on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-77116 Fri, 06 Jul 2012 09:12:03 +0000 fimm 77116@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Well it was nice to meet you all this morning - I'm sorry I couldn't stay longer. I met Uberuce, Smudge, two Daves, Wilmington's Cow and Steveo. I think... I'd never been to PY before - it is avery nice place (and I can see that it would be a nice place to go and sit in the sun and watch the world go by, on the one day that the sun does shine on Edinburgh, so I will keep it in mind for that...) amir on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-77108 Fri, 06 Jul 2012 08:24:35 +0000 amir 77108@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Decided to be generous and not spread my germs round you guys. See you next time.

Didn't check this thread too, so I didn't mention here that I've located some spares for one British pound out of Bike Works. Time to see whether this front mudguard business is miraculous or raowbish.

I will hopefully make it to the next one. Apologies. Paul.

Even though I already owe you coffee and a cake. Uberuce on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76969 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 23:13:13 +0000 Uberuce 76969@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Oh, I can get them from EBC for £7.99, but I'd rather raid a willing CCEr's junk box in exchange for Scandinavian produce. A bit like a much more civilised Viking. Oh, and since it's only the four I need, I'd end up with four largely useless spares myself, and I'm already too much of a packrat. kaputnik on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76966 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 22:38:07 +0000 kaputnik 76966@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ @uberuce - Thebikechain were able to order me replacement mudguard parts out their catalogue. If all else fails you could try that? Alas any of my spare bits are SKS or Planet Bike guards.

I think I have spares of those eyebolt things. Shall check in garage tomorrow. Probably not at PY on Fri though. Uberuce on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76952 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 21:36:54 +0000 Uberuce 76952@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Newps, it's the stays-mudguard area that's needing affixed. I should have mentioned first that it's a Bike Station rescue mudguard and the stays are from a bag of SKS parts, so I might be on a hiding to nothing even if there is a CCE/PY person with four eyebolt things going spare.

If the weather has not changed I'll be swimming over otherwise I'll be on the Dawes.

If yes I may have a couple (will have to look!). How many do you need? Uberuce on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76943 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 20:42:32 +0000 Uberuce 76943@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ If anyone is both attendifying before 8.30 and in possession of some Vavert-compatible bolty fixy things that you'd happily trade for a beverage, then you shall happily get a free beverage in exchange for your Vavert-compatible eyebolt fixy things. fimm on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76859 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 10:48:07 +0000 fimm 76859@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Hmmm. I might come. I would have to neck my coffee and leave, though, as I need to get a train at a reasonable time. Smudge on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76817 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 22:21:36 +0000 Smudge 76817@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Hmmm, might be tempted by a lie in and a nice coffee... I'll maybe see you guys about 0730ish if the rest of the week goes ok :-) ExcitableBoy on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76815 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 21:55:13 +0000 ExcitableBoy 76815@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Sad to be missing this, as I am on holiday, but I shall be away in Cardiff. Enjoy and hopefully another will be arranged soon.

I am night shift and will stop off on way home, so will be a cup of tea (and maybe just a little slice of cake) for me. I think Quentin should be along as well. Look forward to it. chdot on "PY July 6th" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=7212#post-76698 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 14:20:16 +0000 chdot 76698@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Just a reminder.
