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.

Picked one of these a couple of days ago. The Council supplement is on the active travel plan and has what looks like a useful map of the key routes and when CEC will be looking to upgrade them. Haven't studied it thoroughly yet, but spotted a few places where I'd be interested to see some more detail.
And remember, the Spokes Autumn Public Meeting is on November 17th.

Edinburgh's Active Travel Action Plan and Oxford's Dual Network ... What can we learn from each other ??
* Cllr Gordon Mackenzie Edinburgh Transport Convener
* Richard Mann Sustainable transport consultant and activist from Cyclox, Oxford Cycle Campaign
* Venue: Augustine United Church, George IV Bridge
* Time: 7.30; open 6.45 for coffee, stall, exhibition and chat.

Just been invited to an opening at exactly same time.
So, free drink and than go to hear Gordon?
SRD please advise....
I'm the expert on free drinks am I? Sounds about right...
No I was referring back to first time we actually (nearly) met.
(No drink involved)
aaah. now I understand. Oxford and Edinburgh are the only two UK cities I have cycled in for extended periods (8-10 years in each). But I am not at all sure how much they have to learn from each other.
Gordon Maclean seems to try hard, and has responded sensibly to my various attempts to engage him*, but I think he has other things on his mind...
*at the meeting he told us how many miles of cyclelanes had been created. I asked if that total included those which had metered parking on top of them, and if so why.
