Please take care if you’re riding near Humbie as re-surfacing has been taking place. There is now lots of loose gravel on the steep descent on the B6371 a mile before Humbie approaching from the north.

Thanks Colin.
East Lothian CC is particularly fond of surface dressing. I once had to make a huge diversion due to the council there doing most of the roads in the area simultaneously. I did try cycling on it in desperation but quickly ground to a halt (even without mudguards).

Yep spotted this when I went that way on Saturday, was particularly treacherous in the rain and ruined my plans of enjoying the descent.

Is it a cunning way to reduce the load on the Humbie Hub cafe (takeaway)?

Cunning or purely Darwinian? :)
BTW I did make it to the Humbie Hub cafe intact and they were indeed serving coffee (and cake).
I also heard a rumour that the Lantern Rouge is now open as wellPosted 4 years ago # -
Also the cafe in Tyninghame. The Stair Inn is doing takeouts but on the A68. I think both cafes in Lauder are open as well in some capacity.
