    "spend an hour less than normal getting to work"

    Presume a lot less traffic than a 'normal' day?

    Aye, definitely very quiet...
    Today: 40 mins by car.
    Normally: 1hr - 1hr15 by car (I say 'normally', haven't driven in, in many months, maybe even more than a year!).
    Bike / train combo: 1hr 40mins

    Although, it will be busier on way home, but taking advantage of car and doing a Decathlon, and Hopetoun garden centre run on way home.

    Even the cycle paths were quiet this morning. I passed all of 4 cyclists between Cramond and the North of the Bridge today.

    @acsimpson POP poster on handlebars? You may have been approaching the bridge as I was coming off it (disguised as a car).

    Yup that sounds like me. About 8.30 (or it would have been if I was on time.)

    10 cars parked there today, including 2 on the grass. Makes it very difficult to get through with a buggy without getting bogged down in the mud.

    Perhaps this is the solution:

    Cop car parked next to cafe today. No emergency, some sort of community event. Hopeless.

    Illegally parked or there to deter others drivers from illegal parking?

    Is that the electric cop car, a.k.a. Whispering Death?
