Cramond Brig

Ancient crossing to the north
Leaving the city
Old giving way to the new
With a dual carriageway
And somewhat bigger crossings
But no less important
Less tranquil
And less pleasant
To stop

A wee tester ride for Mel and her dad before Pedal for Scotland in two weeks. Just 35 miles or so out to the Forth Road Bridge and back. I'm off north next week to take part in the Bealach Mor sportive ride so this was a last chance for some miles under the wheels (and for me to make sure the new Kaffenback will be up to the ride - I'm confident it will).
