E.g. Trip to see the crammond rats and the Canal to Ratho trip (including singing Navigator by the pogues). Very enjoyable. I read IWRATS original comment as just a wish for safe returns. But could try picking him up on it to see if he will issue an apology, what do you think?

Not at all, no. Just a hope for 2018, particularly CCE's off-road section. I did get dropped once on a 'taster' ERC ride I'd been persuaded to join but I'm not at all bitter about those maladjusted wraiths. chdot on "HNY" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9184&page=2#post-271169 Wed, 03 Jan 2018 15:25:49 +0000 chdot 271169@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ "I just meant ride-outs where everyone gets back safe" Ok. Just not sure if that's a pointed (or even unfocused) comment on past event(s) where that didn't happen. I get the impression that on many CCE rides where a group of people - some new to the others - set off, pace and goals adjust to suit all participants. I've been on a few such 'great days out'. General purpose agreed but actual route and attractions visited made up as the day progresses. Often involved vague map consultation and undergrowth. chdot on "HNY" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9184&page=2#post-271165 Wed, 03 Jan 2018 15:16:02 +0000 chdot 271165@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ "I have questions" Is that related to 'l have issues'?

No probs with trains or anything else. Despite rumours to the contrary I'm not judgmental about anything other than public sculpture, poetry translation, downhill mountain biking, google maps, haircut selection, mechanical disc brakes and few other little foibles.

Icy here so grippy ceramic soles for some (!) Next door neighbour went out for run through. Cross country skiing not possible but Glenshee has some snow I reckon. After lunch walk saw direct sun disappear by 2.30. See pic link. Edinburgh fireworks looked fab. We had a female piper and a small crowd stood on the A924 to watch fireworks at Kirkmichael Hotel. Nice walk on deserted road from Strathardle Inn where local band were playing songs by Waterboys and others. Road super-slippy with lots of black ice. chdot on "HNY" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9184&page=2#post-271044 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 17:22:15 +0000 chdot 271044@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <a href="https://twitter.com/bbcworld/status/947803336526520320?" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/bbcworld/status/947803336526520320?</a> the canuck on "HNY" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9184&page=2#post-271042 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 15:54:41 +0000 the canuck 271042@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ my photos don't look as clear as chdot's, because someone decided to do private fireworks in my line of sight. and also my phone decided to restart itself just as they started. happy new year to all! props to those out riding in the cold and wet. unhurt on "HNY" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9184&page=2#post-271037 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 13:37:34 +0000 unhurt 271037@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ I smell like a bonfire and I'm breakfasting on Irn Bru and paracetamol.
