    Bikes
    I know it's not directly University related, but I just need a pointer from someone in Edinburgh.

    I need to buy a used road bike and for the life of me can't find one anywhere. Does anyone know whereabouts in Edinburgh I can pick one up, as close to the George Square area as possible? Gumtree has not been helpful at all.

    Thanks guys

    The Bike Station are generally pretty good. Cyclists in Edinburgh certainly think they're ok. Check out their website here. Easy enough to find from George Square: it's just along on Causewayside.
