HankChief suggested we start a new thread pertaining solely to the ride on Monday. The other thread serves well for debate on the issues, but this thread is intended for logistical information and a place to post up pictures etc... on the ride itself.
This is roughly what is proposed, but please do give opinions and advice.
7:45 - Meet outside West Register house which is here:
This is an opportunity to speak to any MSPs, councillors and journalist that turn up. HankChief will potentially lead an early ride at around 7:45
8:00 - start the ride out towards Roseburn. I'll "lead" it off, but ih has kindly agreed to help. We will likely be split up at the lights going across to Melville Street from Randolph Place so anyone who knows the route and wants to help marshall would be very helpful. I The plan is to make sure we all get back together into one big group entering Roseburn for a photo opportunity under the NEPN bridge at Roseburn.
Here's more or less the proposed route:
The one slightly tricky area is Bishop's Walk - just south of the Cathedral. I may well have a trailer and will probably take the road around via Manor Place. I think it may be good for us to try and be one group again by the end of Melville Street so people can go either side of the Cathedral. Thoughts appreciated. This may well appear to be over-orchestration but trying to stay as one group as much as possible is a good idea I think.
We'll take the Grosvenor fork as that is what is proposed on the route.
At the end of the route we'll aim to congregate on the old bridge taking this route (click on pic)
Please post any important organisation updates here for the Monday ride. I hope we can be as numerous as possible.
