[/url]Dozens of fashion-conscious cyclists are expected to join the colourful ride along the city's cycle routes dressed in their favourite outfits.Sustrans has organised the one-off event as part of its year-long campaign to get women cycling.
Gina Alcock, Sustrans Events Officer in Scotland, said: "We're really keen to show that whether by wearing heels, your favourite skirt or by putting flowers in your hair, cycling can be beautiful.
"Many of us girls tend to worry that by pedalling to work, to the shops or to see friends we'll arrive in a mess, but that's hardly ever the case. Cycling is one of the easiest ways to get fit and feel good - and there is no need to compensate on style."
Men are also invited to join the ride, which starts at Haymarket Yards, next to Haymarket Rail Station, on May 31st at 12pm. It will last about one and a half hours along National Cycle Network routes to the north of the city centre. There will be prizes for the most glamorous riders and also a 'Bling Your Bike' competition to find the most dressed up bike.
Sounds like a good way to meet women, thanks.
