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.
It's been widely acknowledged for a while that cycling is the new golf but does this cover story from this month's Scottish Field signal that it's influence is extending still further ?

ADMIN EDIT - don't need img tags when it's just a page link. (Look for share if you want the BBCode for inserting pix)
Ok this is me trying and failing to post to a Flickr image of Mark Beaumont on the front cover.
He's wearing shorts in the snow - showing the toughness that got him around the world.
Nah, if cycling was the new shooting he'd have the mountainbike equivalent of a Holland and Holland bespoke shotgun.
Unless I'm much mistaken, despite it having achingly trendy 29" wheels, what he has there is "just" a Koga X-29 Team, an off the shelf midrange(ish) bike... nothing wrong with it, but when aimed at people who have a Range Rover as their second car, it aint flash enough for bragging rights down the golf course/country club/school run/clay shooting ground!
