I went up to Edinburgh to see David from Laidback Ligfiets and try some of his recumbents - it was a glorious day, perfect for a trip to the coast.

Canal Side
The trip started at Argyle Place, The Bicycle Works, where David keeps a couple of bikes, and from there we went to the coast. This part was along a canal towpath, nice and flat and very few people, perfect for happy cruising - laidback stylee.

Almost the coast
So many pretty spots, pity I was too busy riding and enjoying my'self to take photos. This is a short stop to appreciate the view and take the opportunity to take a photo of the bikes: a Nazca Fuego and a Challenge Mistral Deluxe.
