I agree (as an Embra local) that the NCN Routes around Edinburgh are pretty awful. The NCN 1 to the Forth Road Bridge is daft.
... which is why I was so frustratedto see you all as you turned off to Hill o' Beith (where Zee was directing you) on your way to Kinross.
I would have loved to have shown you the better, safer, quicker, more scenic route across and out of Edinburgh and escorted you to Kinross. Probably true for many other CC folk across the land as you passed them by.
Next time, let us know, eh ??
(I know, it's my fault for not reading the FNRttC thread - but a post in some more general section would have alerted CC up and down the land ...)
Anyway -CHAPEAU
Agreed. I did contemplate taking a day off work to join you - in the end that wouldn't have worked, unfortunately.
I might post that comment about Edinburgh over on the local cycling forum. I think most users would agree with you!
Congratulations to everybody. The weather on Saturday was awful (at least, it was where I was).

Wowser Redfalo - that is a fantastic collection of photos. It's like a LonJoG brochure. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!

Great pics there but am I the only one that starts thinking 'The Hills Have Eyes' or 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' when I see that pic of Greg?

dunno about that, but I got the collywobbles looking at that pic of you lot crossing the bridge with the side barrier looking too low for my sanity.

It's a bit more complicated than that...
My work browser is blocking access, but whichever bridge is was (and there were several) you can imagine how I felt on the front of a tandem, with a sidewind! I even felt wobbly on the Forth Road Bridge, which has a high barrier and a very generously wide path.

That's the percentage that finished. The greatest and, to some of us, the most surprising statistic of all ... and the real meaning of the ride. It takes a Simon to do that.
