Cycling dismay as women's events frozen out for London 2012

Herne Hill velodrome: Saturday training - a handful of women.

Absolutely true. I've made it down to HH on a few Saturdays to find myself the only woman there, got dropped immediately and spent the rest of the time cycling around alone. Totally demoralising!

I have loads of people pestering me to set up a blog on feminism and cycling

+1 Brilliant - consider this another pester! :)

If you advertise them properly then probably... I was well up for doing the women's sessions at HH till someone told me I shouldn't bother because they were for kids.

Yep - I emailed VCL to check, and it's for mums who want to ride with their kids.

I would be so well up for training and heading down to the track, if I knew I'd find some more ladies down there to keep me company.
