Christmas morning ride

This is a reminder of Jim Cameron's half-day ride which is coming up next Thursday (25th December, Christmas morning). This is not an official 20-Milers event, but Jim tells me that all those who cycle with us will be welcome to come along. Like our own rides, this one is free, with no advance booking.

One of the attractions of cycling on Christmas morning is that there is much less traffic than usual, which makes it nicer to visit places where we might not otherwise care to pedal. In this case, the ride will take in parts of the West End, Princes Street, Calton Hill and Leith. The pace will be leisurely with plenty of stops.

The ride will start from the Black Sheep café at 56 Shandwick Place. Get there around 10:00 if you want to join Jim for a pre-ride coffee. The ride itself will set out at 10:30. It will finish around midday at the Mosque Kitchen in Nicholson Street, where those who want to have lunch can do so.

If you have any questions about this event, please contact  Jim direct: 07760 455819 or Easycycle@JimCameron.Co.uk.

Looking ahead, the first 20-Milers of 2026 will on 10 January. Look out for more details of that ride nearer the time.
