CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!

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.
A CYCLIST has been taken to hospital with serious injuries after being hit by a van in North Berwick.
Police are at the scene after the crash at the junction of Dirleton Road and Hamilton Road.
The incident happened at about 3.40pm this afternoon (Tuesday).
The male cyclist suffered serious injuries and was taken to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh for treatment.
According to the EEN, the collision involved an "electric cyclist":
No indication is offered of the power source of the van driver.
Here's hoping that the cyclist makes a full recovery.
(Given that the galvanic individual was riding along the main road, it does look like SMIDSY is a strong contender for the cause.)
That junction is controlled by traffic lights
"The 47-year-old male van driver was injured."
Typo? Presumably that should be "uninjured"?
@amir: Ah, OK, that does put a slightly different slant on things.
