Cramond beach wall, sentimental value...
Almost at that exact spot as a kid me and mates are cycling along the top of the wall, I lost it and went face first in to the beach...
Then a few years later when I'm about 14, were just around the corner at the river Almond, same wall follows beach round on to river, were cycling again but not on top of wall this time, I'm on my racing bike which had toe clips in the pedals, we've stopped to watch someone mucking about on a boat on the river, close to the rich ferry man, Cam explain that one, Im stopped one foot on the wall other clipped in pedal, we make to set off, I lift foot off wall and on to pedal, lose balance for some reason, me and bike splash in to river...

I landed mid bottom of picture, luckily tide was in a bit, about three feet of water or it might have hurt a bit...
