Storybikes

Cycling across the Braid Hills today, the gorse out, the raindrops shining and the wind dropping enough to light a candle for Andy. Always shining.

It is with great sadness I have to announce that Andy died suddenly in January. It is unclear at this time what the future of StoryBikes will be. However, we would state that there will be no tours run for the foreseeable future. Thank you for your understanding at this very difficult time for Andy's family.

The red sky this morning was fortunately not a shepherds' warning. We had a fine day for the last cycle tour of the year.

A lovely day for the Edinburgh 20-miler ride today, though given the shortness of midwinter days we didn't do as much as 20 miles today. Some of us walked some short stretches where the paths were more slippy - I was impressed by Jim's Continental Top Contact Winter tyres. Worth having if you do much winter cycling.

A short holiday in Ljubljana last week - and of course, a guided bike tour of the city with Primož of Ljubljana Bike Tour
And we were there at the right time to see the Christmas lights, which are stunning.

A fine, cold afternoon for a tour of Edinburgh.

I joined the Edinburgh 20-miler (http://20milers.blogspot.co.uk/) ride today. Our first stop was in the beautiful Edinburgh-Kyoto friendship garden at Lauriston castle: (http://www.edinburghspotlight.com/2010/05/review-edinburgh-kyoto-friendship-garden-2/)
A good day.
