CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 16years 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.

Midlothian Council has become the first local authority in Scotland to install a revolutionary system on four of its refuse collection vehicles that could be a major step forward in improving cyclist safety.

Have spoken to my local Councillor to see if this could be introduced in Fife. They seemed quite enthusiastic* about the idea and was "going to speak to people" to see how feasible it would be.
*Have also had some cycle path signage agreed for more than 6 months now, still not in place despite numerous prods.

I guess installing reasonable cycling infrastructure is not high tech enough to be "revolutionary". Who wants to talk about kerb heights, as someone else mentioned recently.
I don't think slow moving council bin motors are the problem. I'd like to see this being enforced on commercial tipper trucks for it to possibly be a "safety revolution"
