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.
Hello all, we're trying to put together a press release announcing the second Pedal on Parliament and we're planning a photocall outside the Parliament building at 1:30 on Sunday.
Who can make it, ideally with their families? Or if 1:30 is a bad idea what would be a better time on the Sunday, bearing in mind availability of light etc?
All help greatly appreciated!
I could possibly do sometime earlier in the morning...
I will try to get along.
Keep us posted if times change.
:)
will do - we'll have set it by this evening at the latest (famous last words)
I should be there.
Absolutely.
yo.
Alas, my nearest family is 300 miles due south...but I can dig out my Harrison Park feeder flag and come suitably attired (even if shorts at this time of the year is borderline silly :).
I will be there I hope.
I'm working overnight so will be catching up on sleep during the day, but might be up by then...
Will be just down the road visiting friends in Porty around then so may be able to rustle up 4 grownups and 5 preschoolers.
Thank sally for organising!
Let me know what else needs doing.
I think I'll be there. Will need to check with minimoth.
Fantastic guys. 1:30 it is then
Watch out for more POP stuff but the main thing is the launch on Sunday so keep an eye on the website and if you've got blogs, twitter accounts and so on, we'd be grateful for any posts mentioning POP2 ...
I've just realised what the next 4 months is going to be like ...
Due to be 1C with 11mph wind on Sunday afternoon, so I will be wearing a big wooly sweater under my windproof.
A possible here.
Afraid I can't be there on Sunday.
I have re-arranged my Sunday, so I will def make it.
Uberuce you are a big wooly sweater under your windproof :)
Will try.
See you all 1.30.
:)
Looks like the Edinburgh Reporter will be there at least! Hope it's not too freezing ...
I take it there was no paddling in the fountains today ...
Thanks to everyone who turned out - you guys are amazing
@sallyhinch. Perhaps no paddling, but according to Strava I cycled straight across one of the fountains to get there...
Thanks to the organisers of this event, I used 236 unplanned calories this afternoon, so can now settle down to a big mug of hot chocolate to make up for it.
Thanks to the 30+ adults and children that cycled round the grass for the photographers from the Herald, Scotsman, Reuters and Edinburgh Reporter.. Hopefully be in the papers tomorrow! And I wondered who that person that was surfing the pond was, Greenroofer!
Really good o see folk, and meet Tulyar. Apologies to those who I missed/didn't recognize in their cycling kit.
Sorry I couldn't make it - I was well and truly locked out of my flat after key snapped last night.
