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.
not resolvedI'm starting to look for a new bike for Ewan. He's 8 but tall and I'm findings his child's mountain bike (EBC Cairn) is getting small and anyway it's heavy and really just intended for pottering around the park.
I'm thinking about something lighter and more suited for longer runs rather than play. Something that could be fitted with mudguards and a bottle cage. If he were bigger I'd be thinking a cross bike would be ideal but grateful for any other thoughts or ideas of companies to look at.
@Inst - We're also pleased with the Islabikes - Beinn 20 small, Beinn 24, Beinn 26 small in our case, so if you want to see or try one, drop me a PM...

Another vote for the Islabike... Our tall 8 year old (now nearly 10) has been riding it non-stop since he got it a year and half ago. I think it will probably do him for another year or two too. Very robust bike..
Excellent, Islabikes it must be then. Thanks all, especially Roibeard for the offer of a trial. He's not going to make it to POP (Cub camp) so I think I'll just measure him up and go with their size guide. The Beinn 26 small looks ideal.
