Hello QoPlettes! Forgive us for the late update but we will be riding this Wednesday as usual!
Ruby will be leading this weeks ride and it will be something familiar but taking a Crammond route we have
done before and reversing it. Weathers looking promising for a beach ride but it's dark out there so please don't forget a good set of charged lights!Meet up in front of John Lewis for a 7pm departure! Ruby will be there 10 minutes early to say hi and do any intros/make sure we don't start without anyone.
Strictly no-drop ride. We will wait at key turning points to keep the group together. As always, this city group ride is more about claiming some precious & potholed tarmac space, rather than chasing QOMs. The only essential thing is to have 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 are in rainy season and we want to keep you all safe. Some tools and a spare tube to fix a flat tire would be grand (in case disaster strikes, you will get help with it).
See you all on Wednesday!

Hello QoPlettes!
It's finally happening - this week we are going to be doing "the three peaks" Edinburgh QoP version. Arthurs Seat, the Castle and finish proudly up Calton Hill. Think cosy, warm climbs and views for days (and don't worry, we will have a back up route in case the weather is looking too ropey).

Update to this weeks ride: we are not going to be able to do the "choose your own ride" option because of a change in circumstance but we have a happy compromise lined up so hopefully you can all still make it.
There will be one group this week as usual. Nice party pace, no drops, slightly longer than usual but fairly easy terrain with a wee optional fun midway surprise.
See you all at John Lewis at 7pm (I will be there 10mins early to check in with you all) Here's the route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/37624519

Hey! Hey! Hey!
Meet up in front of John Lewis for a 7pm departure! Ruby will be there 10 minutes early to say hi and do any intros/make sure we don't start without anyone.
Back to our usual 15-20km distance, easy-breezy party pace with no drops! We will wait at key turning points to keep the group together. As always, this city group ride is more about claiming some precious & potholed tarmac space, rather than chasing QOMs. The only essential thing is to have a working bike - any type will do and lights! Some tools and a spare tube to fix a flat tire would be grand (in case disaster strikes, you will get help with it ;) ).
See you all on Wednesday!

This weeks ride for anyone who wants a peek! Hopefully we will have a nice wee tailwind back along Portobello Promenade.
