Silly that it has taken so long to correct, but really a great improvement. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-101463 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 22:15:58 +0000 kaputnik 101463@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The solid white line at top of MMW that made the use of the cut-through technically non-regulation has now been burnt off and replaced by dashed line. A painted lane has been put down between the MMW lane and the cut-through and road markings put down too.</p> <p>Best bit is a white hatched box to stop cars parking right over the dropped kerb and approach to it. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-99156 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 14:56:51 +0000 chdot 99156@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>On a raw day in Feb!</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chdot/8447932690/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8499/8447932690_bd18ed5a86.jpg"></a></p> <p>EdinburghCyclingCity. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-92503 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 10:51:40 +0000 chdot 92503@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Just been sent this -</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chdot/8225764079/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8208/8225764079_e7728a1791.jpg"></a></p> <p>Presume taken shortly after installation. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-92122 Sun, 25 Nov 2012 20:51:23 +0000 chdot 92122@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Dead shiny!</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chdot/8218377474/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8349/8218377474_4a630ed6d8.jpg"></a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-91246 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 13:39:41 +0000 crowriver 91246@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Or maybe just for cyclists sporting "Wiggo" Mod sideburns? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-91243 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 13:35:40 +0000 chdot 91243@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>They will only be for bikes with Gentleman frames...</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chdot/8190819320/"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8200/8190819320_bf1475c331.jpg"></a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-91241 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 13:26:18 +0000 LaidBack 91241@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Must be getting closer to getting racks on our side of the road at shop and cafe. </p> <p>Got good car parking on both sides of road - why not bikes?</p> <p>Can we get one of the old ones? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8923#post-91238 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 13:06:34 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 91238@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Has this thread gone OT?
