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.
Noted on Twitter - 2 incidents with same female parking on double yellow lines and blocking mandatory cycle lane at same location (traffic island outside 107 Lanark Road)
Metallic Blue Honda SK56 BUU
1 physical assault on rider (f) - https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FBCNIKxXIAEZMZP?format=jpg&name=large pushed rider off bike
1 verbal assault threatening rider (m) "Do you want a fight"
Any other reports?
That is terrible. Will watch out for this driver today on my commute
It’s also had an advisory for NSR tyre wear since March and a lot of MOT fails so probably falling to bits too
Any link to the actual tweet?

Streetview from July 2019 (and two previous years) is quite interesting, pre-DYL and with a lovely "no-one can park here but me!" white line that was installed in late 2016. She may be feeling that loss, still, given the house has no driveway - even though the current Streetview shows the car parked in one of the spaces across the road. While there is a pedestrian island almost right at the necessary place, it's clearly just 'inconvenience' that led to the latest turn of events.

+ post above with other incident.
One day someone will deck her, and that will be the end of the problem.
(not suggesting as a course of action, just a likely outcome)
i am intrigued that she seems to have a go at female cyclists.
or perhaps only female cyclists comment on her parking ?
Is the white line in the streetview not protecting the kerb space so that people don't park next to the crossing island? Yellow lines require a TRO while the white courtesy line doesn't.
Of course this driver doesn't seem to understand courtesy.
I blame suz Weber rhetoric for this
Perhaps she only has a go at females because she's confident she can "take" them, but is less confident of her ability to clock a man?
