Winter Evening rides
See https://www.cyclinguk.org/blog/why-i-love-night-riding for a CTC article on what winter evening rides are like. We will stick to lit roads and paths, with the exception of the eclipse where we need a dark spot.

Penumbral Eclipse |
Head for the arrows near the mouth of the Esk in Musselburgh.
|
A horrible night! Winds gusting to 45MPH and rain, quite cold too at 7degC + windchill. 2 stalwarts attended, and we shortened the ride to Portobello. Moon was hard to see, but you can just make out a fuzzy blob above the tower in the Strava photos.
