Sustrans

estate agents and law firms always have a shed load of 'hand deliveries' between each other, usually the lowest ranked person gets an umbrella and goes walk about with them

more info on 5 Dec pls!

I will be on my bike that day so will join in by making my own wave on my bike, but I will try not to get run over. good idea though.

Different departments, same CEO at the top leading policy.

That's fantastic! Beautiful! So elegant and arty. While your at it why not install a few signs that read "Dogs must be on leads" so that cyclists can use sustrans routes more safely.

Slow Travel Agency opening weekend. Wish you were there? http://twitpic.com/kcue1

Sadly, I'nm attending a wedding od some close friends that day - otherwisde i would have considered hopping over the water (or should that be 'bridge'?)

High speed trains have a compartment similar to a mini-guard van behind one of the engines (usually adjoining the quiet carriage). I have often conveniently "forgotten" the rules and just put my bike in there regardless of whether I should have booked, or whether it's peak time, and let's face it, if you get through unchallenged, as you do at the vast majority of stations, how are you supposed to know the rules? The rules are so silly that they're unenforceable anyway.

I heard an amusing story about someone using one of these without first booking - he tried to put his bike in the compartment on a train out of one of the London stations, only to be told by the guard that if he hadn't booked it in he couldn't put it in there as someone else might need the space. He offered to wait until the last moment to make ... Read moresure no one needed the space before putting his bike on - the guard was unimpressed - so he went to the ticket office to try to book his bike onto the train - the assistant in the ticket office told him that it was too late to book it in. Fortunately, this last conversation was overheard by someone in a supervisory or management role, who told the cyclist to go back to the train, say who he had spoken to and "tell the w****r to let him put it on the train!". So the rules might be silly, but at least not everyone working for the railways is a jobsworth.

Speaking of things with religious connections, does anyone know if Sustrans work with the various Historic Churches Trusts with respect to publicising, and enabling, their nationwide cycling event each September? There is an Historic Churches Trust for most counties.

Read Oryx and Crake! Nuff said.

The street I am thinking of is around 10 mins. walk away from here - and is in Nelson ward.....

All done!
