CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 15years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.
...can I pretend that I haven't seen my dog poo on the path?
So ask a lot of dog-owners in Fife...
I have been having to do a lot of Ninja turd-dodging on the Coast path from St Davids to Inverkeithing - at least a dozen in less than half a mile. Never seems to be a problem in summer as they don't seem to appear in daylight.
Anyone else noticed the same problem in their area?
NEPN dog-walkers like to walk a good distance ahead of their dogs, and deliberately never once look round to check what it's doing. They then claim they didn't see it doing anything when you alert them to what it just laid!
Passd two silly ladies walking along NEPN this morning as their 3 dogs just wandered around in the way of everyone. Can we get cowcatchers for bikes?
@PaddyIrish, do they glow in the dark? as that stretch is radioactive these days. Nice to meet you lastnight btw.
@daveC,
likewise- good to meet you.
If they glow in the dark, all they'd need would be helmets and they'd be bona fide "users" of the path...
You know that phenomenon where, as your brain is Photoshopping the bejeebles out of 95% of what you're seeing, you see human faces or predatory animals that turn out to be random patterns in/of inanimate objects?
Ever since my family took possession of a miniature Schnauzer that is a bona fide(bona Fido? *dragged off by Pun Police*) turding ninja, I've noticed that my brain often constructs that image, a little salt'n'pepper dog hunching over and looking furtive, from anything suitably monochrome.
I wonder if these people suffer from this. I say suffer, but it takes a fraction of a second to re-examine the monochrome thing and see it isn't a monocrimping dug. Anyway, it's a thing my subconscious has apparently become softwired to look out for.
