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.

Tickets for the Flying Scotsman locomotive’s first Scottish passenger trips for 16 years go on sale tomorrow.
The world’s most famous engine will operate separate excursions from Edinburgh on the Borders Railway, and over the Forth Bridge to Fife, on Sunday, 15 May.
A total of 425 seats will be available, with tickets £59-£170.

Very exciting. Just a shame the tickets are a bit much for me (not there's likely to be any chance of actually getting hold of one).
BBC4 programme on today: Return of Flying Scotsman.
Available on iPlayer.
I'll post the timings here once they're available from the Network Rail computer.
60163 is doing York to Edinburgh on the 14th. On the 15th it does Edinburgh to Tweedbank and back, and then in the evening a loop round Fife and back to Edinburgh. On Tuesday 17th it goes back to York.
Timings for Saturday and Tuesday here:

THE world-famous Flying Scotsman locomotive is to go on display to the public.
It will be shown for one day only at the Bo’ness and Kinneil Railway on Monday, May 16.

I wonder how many people will get the train to Drem and cycle back

Frantic behind-the-scenes work by @DerekMackaySNP & @networkrail appears to have saved tomorrow's Borders & Fife Flying Scotsman trips

I arrived in York at the perfect time and saw this beauty chug its way out of the station. #FlyingScotsman
