Jim's Evening Rides 2018
Hi, our group will set off at 18:30 every Thursday while there's daylight, to enjoy an evening ride of around 20 miles.
The rides will usually be paced at 12mph or thereabouts.
Rendezvous outside Victor Hugo,
26/27 Melville Terrace, Marchmont, Edinburgh EH9 1LP 0131 667 1827
Not sure how to find it? Here's the trip from the King's Theatre.
Please note, actually visiting Victor Hugo isn't much use, as you're under sufferance if you arrive anywhere near their 6pm closing time.

Pentlands - three reservoirs. Some climbing required, obviously. Just about possible with a road bike, but an MTB or hybrid will be better.
