CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 14years 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.
EVERYONE! Come to the clean air day, 0930-1230 on The Mound. The Mound will be shut these times and I think there is something happening with George St on the Friday.
I'll be there with a few electric bikes and cargo bike and I reckon there'll be a few other shops too.
The start of something bike, I hope.
Lol, can the admin edit the title, please?!
[Admin Edit: Done]
Presumably, with various bike events happening, cycling cautiously and politely along the closed roads will be permitted?
Very much a cycling and walking event! No motor vehicles - that's what it's all about.
When I said the start of something 'bike' in the first post, I meant the start of something BIG!
They’re hardly likely to collect meaningful data on air pollution if it’s only closed for 3 hours & outwith rush hour. And that was the whole raison d’etre as far as Lesley Macinnes was concerned
@neddie: I think a bigger part of it is getting people used to road closures and showing that the city doesn't collapse (and is actually better).
Anyone here know about this?

Edinburgh’s Summer Summit: 21st and 22nd June 2018

chdot, that's basically what the OP is about. I knew Humza Yousaf was coming. I didn't know the outline of the day.
Useful, thanks!
@Stickman
I still don't think that closing one and a half roads (1 of which is barely used) outwith rush hour really demonstrates much.
Most people will be at work and won't even notice.
I tell a lie. I have a similar document emailed from the organisers.
Like I say, this is hopefully the start of something BIG :-)
“hopefully” - as in you know/suspect something?
Or just optimism undimmed by the last few/many years?
Go to the Spokes Mtg tomorrow!
