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.
sticky
resolvedNo less than nine kids from my after school club, plus parent(s). Given I only know a third of the school, it's likely that around three times more were there.
*Didn't actually see until I looked at the Pugley On Patrol video.
Greenroofer and his spy too, of course.
ADMIN EDIT
Have initialised names. UberEdit - fair enough, I've rejigged it.
Cool photo, well spotted Uberuce.
I'm a huge fan of Wayne's World, so you really stood out.
(If anyone needs, me, I'll be hiding from Min in Patagonia)
Bwahaha! :-D
(Patagonia may not be far enough...)
Just the one reverse spot from the kids at work, but it was pretty quiet today; might get more as the week rolls on.
Chap at the end of the Broomhouse cycle way nodded and smiled, not sure if it was someone i've met and not recognised or if it was someone who had been at pop who was still in a good mood.
"may" have been me, thought I recognised a rider going opp way poss from a friday coffee, he nodded and smiled - but I saw / chatted to a few bods tonight.
If it was me, black SS, green carradice, red/black jacket, yellow helmet
Aye that was me by the sounds of it, I was on a red single speed with the lights on.
Steveo - yep, deffo. Actually the distinctive lights reminded me - kaputnik was discussing your self built led's last week at the diggers.
Perhaps we need another PY/Yazoothingymajig coffee/tea/beverage and have a CCE love-in post POP chat?
Spyfyre has suggested a beer here:

I know I didn't recognize a few who did recognize me on Saturday.
I'll need to up my spotabilty rating!
On the Innocent this morning I saw 6 female to 1 male cyclist (excluding me!). This is pretty unusual in my experience but of course may be a blip. Hopefully it isn't and maybe this shows a sign of the positive effect of POP
Possible Wingpig in the dark of the Innocent Tunnel?
I was on foot and walking due to an administration error which meant I didn't have my trainers and I quickly discovered that running in the shoes I had hammers my legs really badly.
Min, initially judged by the pattern of reflective squares on her jacket and confirmed by the cap just in time to make a vague noise.
"pattern of reflective squares on her jacket"
Ooh I didn't know I had those. I mean, I knew there were reflective bits, just didn't know how effective. Good to know.
Spotted you again racing up the Royal Mile (from North Bridge).
Aha. Was there an angry-looking red van behind me?
Mr TBC on Lothian Road, though he saw me first as I was looking around for scary red vans.
I didn't notice a red van but there was a white van and a lot of horn honking. You hadn't caught up to the slow girl yet. If it was the same one.
Kaputnic this morning on middle meadow walk. I was still asleep on the bike so didn't notice until it was too late to wave. SRD's tandem outside PY. would have stopped but time is money people... time is money!!!
Oh I think I may have caught the flash of your bike out the corner of my eye!
I had a passing interaction with Uberuce at the lights on South Gyle Access (most boring road name in Edinburgh?). He reminded me that he was leaving work. I reminded him that I wasn't even in work yet...
Caught up chap cycling a lovely blue grey new Moulton today. 8 speed sturmey hub version. Chatted for a bit on the odd traffic island at Doctors. Bike came from BikeTrax. Had a brompton style handlebar. He carves wood - letterforms and calligraphics and has work in public up at Holy Corner and botanics.
Helios and Co-Pilot outside (original) Earthy this lunchtime
guy on a baby blue On One heading through Tollcross.
anone here?
Theres a few of those around Marchmont/Meadows area with bullhorn bars and fixed wheel.
Handsome. The bikes that is. No comment on the riders.
one of these beauties at my work. This exact model I think. Love the white-detailed head tube.
Spotted a yellowish-green Hase Pino today, on the roof of a car heading west along the A1 towards Monktonhall/Old Craighall.
A Zenfrozt mutual spot on the crossing south of MMW. Or at least, I hope so, otherwise I've confused a girl with flowers on the front of her bike...
Robert
Lol no that was me :D yay my first cce spot :D with my shiny new cycling top that unfortuantly Edinburgh's rain has left dirty spots down the arms on which wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't meant to be brilliant white.
Boy about 4 on 3-wheel scooter, followed by woman on 2-wheel scooter.
On the pavement.
Shocking!
Spotted SRD heading west on Gilmore Place, somewhere roundabout Viewforth. No mutual spot I think as I was disguised in black on a black motorbike.
Spotted the winged pig cycling up a rumbly and cobbly Randolph Place as I cycled down it, heading home to let the better half out to play on her little kayak.
