    Edinburgh set to host Tour de France Grand Départ in 2027

    Apparently it’s being announced tomorrow, with ‘cycling clubs’ being invited to flashmob.

    Anyone know time/place?

    Ever since the public transport corridor over the Forth opened I've said they should take the race over it.

    CCE + bsky/twitter friends drinks meet up - Summerhall (if still in operation), June 2027

    (thought about doing its own thread, but that might be tempting fate).

    Should be fun!

    That's what I call planning ahead!

    I would be up for that - but more importantly, beers some time in the next month or two.

    Well I'm in a bad mood and I feel like sharing so: there goes the active travel budget for the next couple of years gents, got to make sure the route is nice and pretty for the cameras.

    Can we turn this around so that we get the council to actually build some active travel infra, as a precondition/legacy to the race?
