Doesn't seem to be a current proposal for next meet.
Or alternative venue.
Any Festival/Fringe-only venues open early enough?
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.

There is a new coffee shop in Currie on the A70 next to the sports injury/physio. I will check if open this morning as off early. Obviously, it would involve most people going massively out of their way
If we go for festival fringe breakfast can we heckle? This coffee is lukewarm etc. I was heckling a young guy on the free stage outside the cathedral on Friday (spotted the ruggtomcat wheels of fire perked inside the city chambers, oldest bike rail in Edinburgh?)
He was playing guitar on his lap, interesting technique. At end of one song he shouts Dad, don't leave my show at a member of the audience. I shout back He's not your real dad, your real dad wouldn't leave your show. His mum then says That's true......
I'd be happy to do this Friday (10th) if anyone wants to join I'll be there from about 7.30.
Oops I mean PY of course. No messing about or changing the date or venue. Tea and a cinnamon bun.
Statutory reminder -
For newcomers (ALL welcome) -
"Normally from 7.30 to 8.30 for most folk."
Some people hang on past nine.
I shall be in Londinium.... :)
Currie sound good ;-)
Will see how it goes for PY this friday :-)
Obviously, it would involve most people going massively out of their way.
Currie works for me. It's PY that's massively out of my way!
Now, I could stop in Currie on my long commute... where is this coffee shop?
alas it was shut at 8.15 this morning. If heading out of Edinburgh it is on the right hand side of the main road A70, Lanark road West if you want to know, a little after the turning down to Currie High. called The Coffee Mill part of building that has the physio and Halliday's the builder/ electrician's yard
I can detour to PY this Friday probably just after 8
PY Friday I can do!
See ya Friday morn.
Okay so complete confusion now - possibly just down to sleep deprivation - so where is this happening? Is it PY or Currie?
PY South (just to confuse more).
Won't be there 2mo :-( having to slum it in the car due to a required detour to check on my lock up that some lowlife scum apparently tried to break into.
Sorry to confuse, it is PY at middle meadow walk. The coffee mill in currie was open at 8.15 this morning so I will investigate for future
PY South = PY Middle.
No
PYS = MMWN
And PYN = ?
There's also a secret PYSW that most people miss...
Off this week so WOULD have been on schedule up make it on the way back from a shirts-to-work delivery until punctured.
Saw a bunch of folk sitting out this morn , guessing it was the friday morning group ? must try harder to leave earlier next weeek and say hello
@nearefare - PY has been 'roughly monthly'
Though today quite a few 'regulars' couldn't make it.
Perhaps some would go next week - if you promise to be there...
I'll keep a watch out for the next nearly monthly, Now that junior 2 is sleeping full nights I'll have a bit more time to actually read the posts
on here lol
Failed, completely forgot and got up at the usual time. I'm tired anyway from a week in the saddle and I have a very late night tonight helping on an info point on the Schihallion Sunrise from middnight to 4pm so I need all the sleep I can get today. zzzzz That my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
Did I miss the only opportunity to sit out side at a PY this year? Drat.
Sorry - frazzled by work
Nice to see the CCE'rs.
Kaputnik was looking at the Ronde Rapha group with great interest. Think the glamour was a distraction. We could have a defector(!)
I missed Min.... only her teapot remained!
Also think that PY's red cups are smaller than than ones they had before.... I now take SRDs tip and drink the £2.10 filter with £1 top up. I know it's not as luxurious but need to conserve funds for Pastures beside shop.
Personally think their filter tastes better than their espresso-based Americano
PY= from reading this I assume it's Peters Yard in the meadows where you have these meetings
"I assume it's Peters Yard"
Aye PY is about simplicity not exclusivity.
Someone will be along 'soon' posting another proposed date (or venue!)
