Please don't think that us "non racers" are not real! Seeing as bikes were
originally made for practical transport the old lady on her vintage 20"
shopper is as much (if not more so) a cyclist as any racer.
Seems to me the real posers are the multi coloured lycra guys. But who am I
to judge. I ride a 'bent!!

I don't need 'Treetrunk' or 'Jupiter Sunbeam' to teach me about the
benefits of cycling.

Try getting British cycling's newest fan(Red Ken) to organise a weekly
or fortnightly time-trialling course similar to the London stage of
the ToB.
Invite clubs and individuals from all over Britain to come down and
ride it.
I'd wouldn't mind going up and down the banks of the Thames at full
welly on a closed-off and properly marshalled street course( I've just
got some new tri bars ;- )

So if these unkempt youth got their Leninist-Maoist tree-hugging arses
in gear then they could make a real impact.
3 laps of Piccadilly Circus blowing whistles ain't gonna do it.
