    I've written up a blog post with a round-up of the (non-sports) cycling news and events of 2009, it should be of interest to many here and it links back here quite a bit:

    It's you or one of the people in the cycle campaign I know, I think it may be the latter, but I'm not sure. It's a nice logo. It seems to be a nice twist on this.

    It certainly was a good year. I'm a bit fearful that the DoT are drawing back on their commitment to strike out the mandatory use of cycle tracks, but a very good year all told.

    I suppose we were long overdue one!
