Let's drink coffee, eat pastries and ride bikes together. We can call ourselves the Queens of Pain au Chocolat.
We'll meet at Meadow Place (opposite The Pavillion in the Meadows) for a 9:30 roll out to explore the new Union Canal - Roseburn link, take in views of the Forth, and finish with a (energy-allowing) lap of Arthur's Seat. The cafe plan is currently undecided - either a stop off at the newly-opened The Pitt in Granton, or if it's looking too cold, carry on to Fortitude Abbeyhill towards the end of the ride. I'll update once I've figured it out!
The route is below. Bring a lock.
This will be a strictly no-drop ride. We will wait at key points to keep the group together. These group rides are more about claiming some precious & potholed tarmac space, rather than chasing QOMs. The only essential thing to have is a working bike - any type will do.
Fully charged lights are a must and we encourage you to wear a helmet! A small request that everyone checks their brakes beforehand as we want to keep you all safe. A spare tube to fix a flat tyre is a must and some tools would be grand but there will always be someone with tools to help out if you need to borrow anything (if disaster strikes, you will get help). Our rides are completely self supported which mean we will be there for you as best we can but you are ultimately responsible for your own safety and wellbeing.

I think given weather and other factors I’m gonna have to miss out on this! Hopefully next time there’s a long ride things line up a bit better for me, enjoy though!!
