Queens of Pain Wednesday Ride #15

Come ride the sunset away with us. We'll have our usual 15-20km route in the city - probably go say hi to the sea and then back!

No-drop group and we will wait for everyone at key turning points, and as always this city group ride is more about claiming some precious & potholed tarmac space, rather than chasing QOMs.

Meet up in front of John Lewis at 7:45 for a 8pm departure! The only essential thing is to have a working bike - any type will do! Some tools to fix a flat tire would be grand (in case disaster strikes, you will get help with it ;) ).

See you soon!

Queens of Pain Wednesday Ride #14

Change of plans: we are joining Hillz for their experimental south route: https://outliers.microcosm.app/events/6186/#comment16077717

We will have our own usual no-drop group and leave a couple of minutes after the hills gang to make sure we don't bunch up too much.

Meet up in front of Toppings at 6:00 for a departure at 6:15! The only essential thing is to have a working bike - any type will do! Some tools to fix a flat tire would be grand (in case disaster strikes, you will get help with it ;) ).

See you soon!

The ride you have all been waiting for, going further and faster than ever before to ... kidding, we are going on a leisurely ride finishing on a beach to have some beers together. Will post route on Wednesday. There are just two important things to remember:

1. We will start promptly at 7:30 pm! That's a whole half an hour earlier than usual.
   
2. Your beer, BYOB baby!

Made a slightly shorter loop variation to account for the impending rain and remove the one steep cobble descent: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/35930760

Provisional route over here - might change slightly before the ride depending on tram work closures on Leith Walk.

Queens of Pain Wednesday City Ride #4

What? We're already one month in? Then its's time to kick it up a notch... with a loop that contains a sprinkling of cobbles & dirt paths. We're also going for a minimum speed of 18kph for this one! Still cruising & chatting speed but with slightly less free rolling. No-drop rules still apply - so we will wait for you at key turning points :)

Queens of Pain Wednesday City Ride #3

Back by super popular demand.

Same as last week, we're going to keep it small & simple with an 18km easy loop taking in the city at night plus some seaside action. Don't worry about your speed, this is a no-drop group and we will wait for EVERYONE. The group ride is more about claiming some precious & potholed tarmac space, rather than chasing QOMs (for now!).
