I was there (thats me zipping out into the road straight after the ambulance) and I had a great time. I've been meaning to do a CM event since they started and have only just made it. I've frequented various protests and demonstrations over the years (Reclaim the Streets, Civil Justice etc etc) and developed a pretty low opinion of the Police because of thier abysmal behaviour in the past, but I have to say, despite my preconceptions, this lot behaved impeccably and were (despite looking like the blue meanies) extremely good natured!? What IS going on? I thought they just came along to bully us? Anyway, congratulations to all those involved (including the Police) for a really positive, enjoyable event that clearly demonstrated (see ambulance) that the bicycle is the ONLY sensible form of transport for a city like ours. Lets hope that the Government will take note and that more and more people will join us!

It's great to see it on Video too. Well done! I'll try and do the same next time.

PS: Why is it that cabbies always attempt to run me over!? Why the murderous attitude? What can we do about this problem as a group?
