Anyway, when are we going to the pub again?

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.

You want Talking Heads comment on this page? My bicycle diaries from the library bus is overdue, I might get fined.

Same as it aye was.
I'm up for beer. I take it Iain McR is going to sort out the dates he's busy and we can book it for then.
To defend the indefensible Iain McAr (aka Jonathon). Is free on the night we book as he insists on it being that night. And he never has any other night time engagements ever on that night so he is safe in the knowledge it will be fine. But then some sort of nagging doubt creeps in and he actually checks his diary for the first time to discover he has a work thing on the same night, for which we get bumped. That is his M.O.
in my defense ...
It's a brave person who can stand up and admit they were wrong. Or one that's bang to rights.
Right or wrong you still have to make some beer decisions for us...
These threads are brutal. Could whoever started it or the admin edit the title to include the date and venue so I don't have to trawl pages?! Cheers!
Has a date been decided??
Nothing at all has been decided! I will however start a new thread for ease of following...

Not sure if he on CCE but there is an invite to 'cyclists of Edinburgh' for drinks next week.
Friday 13th, 18.30 at Akva.
Anyone else thinking of heading along?
depending on how mobile I am by then, I am planning to go...
Am going. Believe @EdCycleCam (and if we're lucky, his pet slugs) will be there too.
@algo still the knee?
@unhurt no but related inauspicious and entirely unwanted public collapse from bike due to slipped disc again during bike bus.. just went ping as it has done before..... now extremely immobile but doing my best to hobble about as is the advice. I'm not looking forward to school and nursery drop-offs this week though! The small people will have to forego their bicycles and mine and learn to leave early and walk slowly, but I have no idea how to get them to their various clubs without a bicycle and also do a day's work..... I guess this is what car dependency feels like
Hmm that sounds like maybe you should NOT be going to work! When I pinged my back the other year there were several days where the most I was up to was hobbling to the kettle and back (and even that was a challenge...)
Btw the pilates teacher I know is also a physio, and she was really helpful in sorting my back out once I could do a bit more than hobble.
i could be convinced to join that...
Might pop in on way home from work, though if lurgy lifts sufficiently, friday forecast might be best cycling day and i might take half day to actually get out (not Miley Cyrus yet)
I will swing by for two pints of beer.
such discipline it takes.. to avoid that pint of no return
@iwrats, what ABv for the pair of beers?
@gembo
I'll leave that up to you cheers.
@algo - sorry to hear you're a bit incapacitated. Hope you can improve soon.
If it was useful could lend UA out but even though it's low step and an e-bike it still takes effort to move onto stand so probably out.
Have trikes and e-trikes which can work solo but not for family runs so easily.
@laidback - extremely kind thank you. I just need time I think. I have nowhere to keep an UA alas - there's no way through to our back green otherwise I'd love to give it a go one day!
Also have our smaller 'normal' Nihola e-bike but you have accessories that might not fit.
Appreciate all the bike train stuff that you and others have been doing.
Yup, I'm planning to head along for 6:30.
I have plans later on but I am planning to come round at 6.30 for one.
18h30. Two pints of beer. No oblivion.
Guys - i'm going to stay home. seems only sensible...
Sorry, I think I'm going to bail too.
Now's the time for social distancing, even if precautionary...
