Dear Campaigner, On behalf of Reading Cycle Campaign Committee I would like to invite you to the inaugural Reading Cycling Forum, to be held on 16th September at 7:00 pm in the Coley Park Community Centre, Wensley Road, Coley. The Campaign committee was tasked by its members at its AGM to set up a forum for all people in Reading with an interest in cycling. The objective is  More People on More Bikes More Often. Despite Reading Cycle Campaign being one of the largest in Britain (it has nearly 600 members, and ranks 4th using membership as a measure) and having been going for more than 25 years, we feel that Reading is slipping behind other towns and cities in getting people cycling. Our members have asked us to tackle this! We are aware that there is a thriving cycling scene, we know that there is already a great interest in cycling, but compared with other towns we have a dearth of community led initiatives. By bringing everyone together to share ideas and initiatives we think we can make Reading a more vibrant cycling town. The purpose of the inaugural meeting is to see what we can do together, and to identify what key things we can do to get more people on bikes. This is all about making a difference ourselves, not hoping somebody else will do it for us. Although Reading Cycle Campaign is hosting the meeting, it doesn't want to set the agenda. If you want something to happen, share it, the hope is that we will find people who can collaborate to make it happen! Only one proviso though, it must fit with the theme, More People on More Bikes More Often! Please let your fellow cyclists know about this, they are invited too! It is hoped that we will meet regularly in future. If you are coming, and you know others who are, perhaps you could let me know. We will be providing handmade biscuits and would like to know how many to bake! Adrian Lawson Chairman, Reading Cycle Campaign Facebook & Twitter We are now on both social networks.

Hi all,

 

Thought I would pass this on,

 

Most of us know about the really bright lights that a lot of us bought - 900 lumens, about £50.

 

Well, it would appear that we can now get a 1600 lumens light set-up for about £34! A dazzling deal?

 

Max.
