Edinburgh misc. thread

Fair dos, sad to see Ronde go and sure the “club” runs are full of nice folks, just not my cup of tea.

@retrodirect/glowbike I think is an Edinburgh person as well? I saw your scooterbike hybrid thing via Edinburgh Deliveroo people, hoping to spot you out on the road on it one day...

It is now the new year, are we doing a gravé/groad ride? Something just over the bridge perhaps so the Fifers can join us? Nice bit of scenery to make the Southerners jealous? I have a lot of shite going on especially until 1 March but if I can make it I'll join up. @Eamesy must have nearly finished his Fixed Gear Off-Road Shredder, seems like fate to me.

Tuesday, cheese toastie pub ride.

Can't make that one :(

Alright edinburghites? Edinburgers? Folk whom'st reside in Edinburgh?

Looking to cycle to Glasgow to visit a pal, been trying to gauge the best route that is NOT the bloody canal....zzzzzz.

Does anyone know of good routes?

Cheers

CK headset, carbon (bladed) fork + nice steel road frame for £100. Looks like a 2014 so 54cm top tube - the geo is on the Kona website

Thought I'd check here first,

I have an On One Pompino in great condition with a nice spec. Looking to swap for something with gears as my weary left knee is grinding more than Peter Hewitt at Washington street.

Please message if anyone is interested.

Cheers.

Bike spaces on Edinburgh - Borders buses. Can get to the trail centres without a car

My pomp is up for sale in Edinburgh. https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/332982/#comment14703185

Would be great to pass it on to another Edinburgh dweller.

I've just sold pretty much an identical pompino.
I was really struggling to find any interest on it, let alone a buyer. I had to drop the price way down just to get a bite. Edinburgh gumtree was a waste of time.

Die set at Meadows Festival, handy for anyone who likes to cut 1" forks? Shit picture soz

Will be joining the Edinburgh crew soon...so I thought I'd click the follow button and say "Hi!"

Welcome! You picked the worst/best time of the year to move here, depending on how you see it..

Same

Also in Edinburgh and just seen the thread. Quite looking forward to my first festival in 10 years!

Last week my commute home from Kirkcaldy to Edinburgh was 35 mins. Now the Fringe is on it's gone up to an hour

on here? Won't someone think of the bearings!

Long shot and dunno if it belongs to anyone on here, but I found a black Rapha Core Rain jacket (looks brand new) on Tolbooth Wynd in Leith on my way home Tue evening. Must have fallen out of a bag; hit me up if it’s yours or someone you know who’s Waffaless.

This has Stu written all over it.

A bit OT, but does anyone have any recommendations for somewhere to look for second hand speakers/audio gear? / anyone in Edinburgh area looking to get rid of any hifi?

^ I've seen some absolute bargains recently on Faecbook Marketplace locally - a nice Yamaha AS500 amp with phono stage for £80 the other day for E.G.

Anyone here riding a dark green fixed gear? Was passed as I huffed up north bridge on my tourer..

Cool, I'll keep an eye out
