Edinburgh ran in eight tries as they blew away Bayonne 52-12 to get off the mark in Pool 3 of the European Challenge Cup.
Bouncing back from an opening loss to Gloucester, Edinburgh opened the scoring as Matt Currie celebrated his new contract with a try and, after Magnus Bradbury and Esteban Capilla were sent to the sin bin, Mosese Tuipluotu crossed for his first try for the club to make it 12-0 at half-time.
Lucas Martin got Bayonne on the board early in the second half, and Baptiste Germain quickly responded to a try from Darcy Graham with another score for the visitors, but the floodgates were about to open for Edinburgh as the tries came in a rush.
Duhan van der Merwe ran between the posts before Graham got his second, finding a way through a scrambling defence, and Tom Dodd then got two in quick succession, both from rolling mauls.
Jamie Ritchie added the final Edinburgh try in the 77th minute.
