From: North Queensferry Scotland and London (and France)

Bikes: Custom (Colin Laing) 531c fast tourer/audax, 1964 Flying Scot Continental, 1995 Cinelli Supercorsa, Holdsworth Mistral single speed, Dahon Speed 6 (folder), Micmo Sirocco and a few more

Yesterday was cool and some rain in the morning, but on the way home I left slightly early and took the dual carriageway rather than the cycle path.

Door to door in 39 minutes for not much under 12 miles. Average speed 18.1mph. Not bad considering I had to ride out of Edinburgh, got stopped at red lights etc (No auto off on my old Cateye computer)with clock ticking all the time.

as anyone who has ridden here knows, it's also not very flat.

Think I'll start Time trialling
