Following yesterday's thread of more space on trains.

https://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/psa-more-bike-spaces-on-scotrail/

I followed an Ember bus today - huge big bike rack on the rear. A good way of getting from Edinburgh Waverley and Edinburgh Airport or Glasgow stations to Dundee. Opens up all sorts of tours/bikepacking days out.

Cheers Matt - I saw this bus the other day, didn't recognise the livery and was impressed by the Swiss PostBus style bike rack on the back. V cool, thanks for flagging

I've a friend on FB saying that you need to book ahead to get certain drop off or collection points - it's not a wave down service.

And Markus Stitz praising them for thier service.

Need to make an effort to use them, would be a good/lazy way for me to explore Dundee/St Andrews etc. and be able to enjoy post ride libations without having to worry about drive home 😎
