The weather forecast is a bit borderline for tomorrow: Metcheck for example are currently promising a nice sunny day around 0degrees, however other places are suggesting that there might be a fair amount of snow falling before then.
Mike & I aim to be at Middle Meadow Walk as normal for 10.30 tomorrow, however we may decide to cancel on the spot if the weather is bad.
So the upshot of it is... the ride isn't cancelled at the moment but if the weather's nasty then it doesn't make sense to go for a fun ride: no one wants to get hurt! The general principle of 20-milers applies, in that you are responsible for your own safety and wellbeing and if you don't feel that it's safe, then don't come.
However I really hope that the snow holds off and we all have a glorious ride tomorrow. Andy (Storybikes) is planning to take us out to Riccarton and Colinton, about 17 miles in total.

About us
Edinburgh 20-Milers is an informal and sociable cycling group. We have an easy-to-moderate ride on the second Saturday of every month, and other occasional rides throughout the year.
Our rides are suitable for occasional cyclists and those with a little more experience. They are a good choice for riders who are comfortable cycling about 20 miles in a day, but who might not feel ready for a longer or more strenuous day out. (If you haven't cycled for a while, or are unsure of your abilities, consider starting with EasyCycle instead.)
We favour easy paths and gentle gradients where possible, and aim to avoid heavy traffic.
We meet on the second Saturday of every month (January to December) at the north end of Middle Meadow Walk (at the junction with Lauriston Place) in Edinburgh at 10.30am.
All our rides are free. There's no advance booking: just turn up on the day.
Got a question about our rides? See our information page, or email us at 20milers@gmail.com.
Pubs, cafés and snack bars
These are some of the places where we stop for food and refreshment on our rides.
