Edinburgh woman involved in near miss with youths riding motorbikes on cycle path

A Portobello cyclist had a narrow escape from a potential collision with two balaclava-wearing youths riding motorbikes on a community cycle lane. Kathy McEachan, 53, was travelling to a friend's house on East Brighton Crescent in Portobello when she was forced to stop and give way to the young yobs.

The incident occurred at around 8:40pm on the popular Christian path on Thursday June 30. The path is used regularly by a variety of dog walkers, young children, pedestrians and cyclists.
