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.
ADvertised to me on the youtubes.
Hopefully they've targeted this specifically to "cyclists" so that people who wouldn't know better won't see it.
One weird thing is "when pulling off at traffic lights, check over your shoulder before pulling off" - I sort of thing you should be taking primary position if you're that worried about someone trying to left hook you.... Surely it'd be better to advise that...
Totally agree about shoulder checking at lights - I think showing any signs of not moving off at a green light makes a left or right hook more likely, not less.
Also don't see the point of establishing eye contact at junctions with drivers in front - it's the ones behind you have to worry about IMO.
Why are Skoda running public information ads aimed at cyclists?
And why are they using him?
Seems to be an advert for a new channel 5 reality TV show. Skoda must be a sponsor.
That would make more sense than Skoda being the advertiser.
