It was a glorious evening to enjoy a fish'n'chips at South Queensferry last night. I'm not a bridge or construction geek, but I do love looking at the Forth Rail Bridge and driving over the new road bridge is a delight too.

For anyone not aware of what's going on in the header image on my profile page, I used to [dis]organise an overnight #cycle ride from #Dumbarton to #StAndrews on the shortest Saturday night of the year. We'd always line up #JellyBabies, one for each rider, on the sunrise side of the #ForthRoadBridge when we crossed it. The first of these photos only has four in it (link to flickr, 4 jelly babies on the rail of the FRB, 2 yellow flanked by 2 black, Forth bridge behind). https://flic.kr/p/ZkPBY

If you drive through South Queensferry and head towards the Biker Cove you can park up for free and get a good look at the bridges…especially the Forth Rail Bridge. My kids love seeing the trains go over.

Also, if you were wondering, the #photo currently in my header shows the #ForthBridge at dawn, taken from the #ForthRoadBridge. The #JellyBabies represent the five riders who took part in that year's #DumbRun: overnight #Dumbarton to #StAndrews on the shortest Saturday night of the year. Some of my best #cycling memories are from overnight centuries.
