Cycle campaigning

It is definitely worth discussing and I see where you are coming from Will. I looked at the list of candidates and thought 'very white, very middle class, many from the same areas, (Hackney, Islington, Southwark) wonder why that is?' These people all put themselves forward so is there a barrier to people from different backgrounds putting themselves forward (I don't think so) or is this a reflection of the membership makeup overall? If the latter, why does that not reflect the cycling community accurately?
I don't think there is a barrier, certainly not intentionally.

Unfortunately I think it probably does represent fairly well the mixture of those who cycle. I think we need to be asking ourselves, schools, TfL, our local councils, why we don't see as many women, non-white, older or young people on bikes, rather than having a pop at LCC about their members.

Just for the record, Hackney and Southwark have some of the most racially and economically mixed populations in London so not clear what your point is? Perhaps that the trustee candidates don't represent that mix?
