    Got back into biking over last few months … even bought a new bike as getting hooked on it again.
    Noticed on this forum that a few guys meet up for some night riding, mainly starting out from Pencaitland.
    Is this a regular meet up? If so I’d like to tag along, so is there an outing next week?
    Coastkid, your blogspot site is great …. inspiring me to want to get out and explore parts of East Lothian I’ve never got round to visiting despite living here!! 🙂

    I live in Pencaitland and head out all the time. I can’t always make the organised rides due to my shifts, but the ones I’ve been on are good fun. I’ll start posting before I head out, the only thing being it might be a wee bit short notice for some folk. My pace isn’t as fast as some as my skill/fitness levels are still being worked on, but its always a laugh. right now I might be heading out on Monday or Tuesday night, dunno where yet though. But I’ll have to wait and see about herselfs plans and the weather.
    where are you based pugson?

    Coastkid, cheers for the pointer to MTBScotland, i’ll keep an eye on it
    and will hopefully make it to a Thurs ride.
    Yodagoat, I’m in Pencaitland too! Tuesday evening I could do if your out then and if my fitness (and Missus & kids) allows I’ll try to make Coastkids outing on Thursday too!

    Has anyone got a GPS route for any of these loops? I’m up later in the month (parents are in ballencrieff) and would be good to get out for a couple of hours.

    Im up for a night ride this week unfortunately not Tuesday though (Photoshop course) , Also If any of you East Lothian types are off during the day I can meet up for a wee blast. Coast Kid might venture down your way to trade some cider for that tyre if you still have It.

    I often have time off on weekdays due to my shifts. They change from week to week though. When were you thinking?

    Also I fancy doing a nightrun over the ridgeroad of the garletons, but it would have to be on a clear night, i don’t mind the cold too much but i recon it would be a **** nightmare in the rain and wind.
    I know, I know… MTFU.
