Oh dear! I am not filled with confidence that my brand new, sealed in the box, tech that could save mine or my buddies life in an avalanche has no screws holding it together 😬🤯 BCA Tracker3 @AvalancheSafety @AvalancheGeeks @AvalancheAcad

@DrouthyScot @Edinburgh_CC Excuse #5: You're on a group ride with your local cycling club. Travelling along at an average pace of 20-25mph towards the Lang Whang.

[Laura 🍄 @lchessar]

@DrouthyScot @Edinburgh_CC Excuse #4: the Water of Leith is not treated in icy / snowy weather so it's safer on the main road where the ploughs and gritters have cleared and treated the surface.

[Laura 🍄 @lchessar]

@DrouthyScot @Edinburgh_CC Excuse #3: dog walkers don't want cyclists on the Water of Leith. It's a hostile environment and dogs are not always under control.

[Laura 🍄 @lchessar]

@DrouthyScot @Edinburgh_CC Excuse#2: Your departure or destination point is on Lanark Road West i.e. doctors surgery, opticians, butchers

[Laura 🍄 @lchessar]

@DrouthyScot @Edinburgh_CC Excuse #1: it's not safe in the dark on Water of Leith. The route is unlit and escape routes are few and steep. Not suitable for commutes between October & March.

[Laura 🍄 @lchessar]

@BalernoCinema @BalernoSchool @Deanparkprimary HNY! I DM'd you to ask you to take my email address off your mailing list in October. Would you be able to pick up the request please?

@Longstone_CC @edinhelp Wendy? 🤔

@david_mccraw I've been taking the quiet route via HW / Gyle since starting hybrid working in June due to the WoL works. WoL has been my regular commute for years. Thoroughly disappointed, but not surprised at the finish. 🫤

[Laura 🍄 @lchessar]

@david_mccraw I almost went straight into that this morning on my first commute down the WoL. Things like this, and the rough gravel makes it much less desirable to commute on.

@almuckersie @JimDensham 😆 Do let us know what you spot next time you're out & about.

[Laura 🍄 @lchessar]

@almuckersie @JimDensham Of course it wasn't me, because you would have seen the other 2 cyclists behind me, and that makes three...four...five...any more? #LanarkRoad 😄👍

@CouncillorCowdy 1 mile of isolated lanes does not make a cycle-safe city! Cycled LR on Thu but battled through Currie & JG queues first. Cycled the super-wide Colinton Rd on sunny Sat cos it was in direction I needed to go! Please support and build more - then you'll see people on bicycles 😀🙌
