Thanks everyone who came and made this ride such a success. The numbers, and the coverage, have been overwhelming. TfL and their "smoothing traffic flow" agenda is suddenly a hot political issue. (You know you've made it when even Vanessa Feltz is warbling on about it on her phone in show)
I can't say THANKS enough to all the forumungers who helped to marshal; Alex, Alien8, You Know When You've Been [Ed] Scobled, Dancing James and anyone I've forgotten - you were all PHENOMENAL. Thanks to your work a lady on the ride was telling me she was able to ride the E&C roundabout for the first time even though she lived next to it - she'd never have done it alone. Pretty inspiring stuff, methinks.
I've finally collected all my thoughts and done a write up here;

Am sure one or two of your appear in these pics.
Thanks again! More coverage to follow, I think, and of course we'll keep you updated on happenings.
Considering it was a tour of some of the hairier corners of London, and had a fairly serious message, it was also bloody good fun!
