not wanting to dwell on not getting any tickets for any Olympic events. I reckon we have enough members, friends, contact with cycle clubs and bike businesses with skillz to create our very own 28 day legacy in London this summer.
some of us are probably already involved in club stuff, it might need a few event leaders, an army of volunteers / marshalls, sponsorship from the bike stores, suppliers and clothing companies to this pull off..but here is a starter for 10 list of events / suggestions discussed in the cambridge ride today among the forums finest.
