Welcome to SnowCycle
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
-- Mark Twain
Welcome to SnowCycle, a website based on my interests in cycling and skiing.
This website has some reports and photographs from the Spokes Sunday Bike Rides that I lead. If you're interested in coming along, we meet on the 1st Sunday of the Month at the Usher Hall, Lothian Road at 10am. Spokes is the Lothian cycle campaign, so our main efforts and activities are in the council areas of Edinburgh, East Lothian, Midlothian and West Lothian.See Spokes for more info.
I am currently working on this website, but old stuff can be seen at http://www.snowcycle.biz/ or http://www.snowcycle.org.uk/
I have also added some details of winter holidays I have made, as well as adding photos from these trips. If you live in Edinburgh, and want to come along (there's no joining fee!!!!), let me know.
Warm Regards.

Cyclists Ride and Chickens Run
"I have spread my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams." - W.B. Yeats
A trip that started off looking really good, but persistant rain curtailed the ride. A complete opposite to the May Ride, it still provided some interesting experiences..

Spring into Summer
"Lethargics are to be laid in the light, and exposed to the rays of the sun for the disease is gloom." - Aretaeus
Thank you to everyone who turned up on Sunday. It was very nice to see you, and explore the wonderful West Lothian countryside with you as company. It was a warm, slightly fast, and quite fantastic. Hopefully, summer will be like this. Details of all rides I will be doing are shown in the calendar in the right column of the website.

The Long and Windy Road
"OHANA, Means family, family means no one gets left behind, or forgotten" - Lilo and Stitch
A lovely trip down to the Scottish Borders starting and ending in Edinburgh. A bit breezy, which made deciding the route to take was based on what is the less painful option.
