That would explain why I saw @neddie and A.N.Other walking along Forrest Rd on Tuesday (it's my in-office day and our new offices are up the lane next to Sandy Bell's which I have a tenuous family link to with it being owned by my great Uncle many years ago https://sandybells.com/history/ )

@mcairney - the AI Dept was there before moving to South Bridge which burnt down. Up the lane not Sandy Bells. I see @SRD’s former PhD student let’s call then Layla, plays clarinet in Sandy bells as part of Och Vey

Ventured west along the canal today. Spotted Our Glorious Leader and a double header spot of Gembo, once in each direction.

@bill heading uphill on the way home on her commute as I was heading downhill on the way home at the start of my commute, meeting at the towpath access ramp on Hermiston House Road Bridge. We had a nice chat and cycled together as far as Bridge 8 Hub where Iza diverted off the canal.

(On Apple Maps version of StreetView)
Someone (likely more than one) has walked random bits of Edinburgh (that was probably when LW was shut for tramworks) including paths around Fiveways

@greenroofer about 25 mins after he experienced The Quickening. Looking very trim

I hadn't actually experienced the maximum Quickening, due to having turned round at the lane just before the top of the hill because I reckoned that was halfway through the ride in time terms. As ever, the headwind I'd fought up the hill seemed much less impressive as a tailwind. Being just a week into my retirement, I am still getting a little jolt of guilty pleasure each time I go for a ride during 'normal working hours'.

Ha, I was holding the gate tonight for a chap at the soon to return Clubbiedeans big puddle , he had come from the Bonaly direction into a block headwind he seemed to hold me responsible for because it was a tailie for me. All humans should approach The CBP from Balerno side if they wish to avoid a block headwind.

@DaveC stopped to let two pedestrians and me past on the Slateford Aqueduct this morning. Normally when I meet him we're both on Terns, but today it was just me on a Tern.

Was it anyone on here taking a photo of the George IV Bridge footway when I went past at about half one?

@MediumDave walking down the hill from Torduff Reservoir yesterday evening. I was toiling up said hill, concentrating on trying (unsuccessfully) to keep my heart rate down, so didn't notice them until the last minute.
My route then took me up the Exponential Hill, down to Flotterstone and back over the Pentlands via Castlelaw and the Ranges road. It turned into a Lovely Ride, but there was quite a bit of climbing...

I have a Dutch friend, Prof Van Tongeren, a big lad, he would judge some of those hills to be unecessary
The WoL path is nice I used it with two heavy panniers to return from Porty today.
Ignore the idea it has a council closure.
