I know there are a few folk around here who ride in East Lothian - anyone doing any night rides or fancy starting some? About to get a fattie (Dec)so would be interested in doing some coastal stuff as well as normal trails. Cheers

May be worth a chat with Dave in Law Cycles in North Berwick, i believe he selling some fat bikes now and was speaking about local fat bike tours so he may have some contacts of other like minded people who may be up for fat bike night rides.

Coastkid is the man for Fatties , though we do East Lothian night rides and Yodagoat from here is always on his fatbike. We never venture down the coast though but your welcome to join us around Pencaitland and East Saltoun. 😀

As Stanfree said we do regular rides round Pencaitland and that. I go down the coast a fair bit too, never done a nightride down that way yet. A bit too high a chance bumping into some man on man action. I'll post up and coming stuff up on the East Lothian Mountainbiking page. I tend not to post many rides on here due to the extreme hatred that the sensitive souls have for The Yak and a few other folk that go on the nightrides.
I usually ride my Pugsley everywhere.

Cheers guys, will have a look on the Facebook page. Was out for a short ride tonight to see what shape my old bike is in after 4 years in storage. Didn't come across any doggers thankfully, glad I didn't read that before I went out or I would have stayed in!

Hi holmesy 🙂
I usually am out on Tues and Thurs evenings but on a weeks Hols now so regular plans on hold with planned day trips/weather depending further afield...

Yodagoat is well known for hanging around a Longniddry carpark on dark evenings where there is a lot of reputed dodgy goings on wi blokes 😆

Stay east of the No 1 Longniddry car park and you will be fine 😉

There was one evening i rolled down the hill to Gullane car park with both magicshines on full bore and there was a group of cars and a blond girl was on a car bonnet and loads of blokes in a queue 😯
Rather have saddle sores than the clap so kept grinding the pedals :mrgreen:

Will give you a shout if out any evenings next week 🙂
