Super cool women doing neat things on bikes

The CTC are moving their tanks onto the BC's lawn. This is a reprisal for the BC/SKY armoured columns currently churning up the CTC's garden.

CTC , having just completed the change to a charity status fiasco have now t noticed Sky Ride and BC's ambitions to move out of Cycle sport into campainging for cyclists rights- which has always been the CTC's role.

So actually this is a good thing- not least that Sky/BC/Rapha contiue to ignore women's cycle sport.

But yes, a bit odd .

Exactly. WTF is a charity doing sponsoring a cycling team? Aside from placing CTC in the deeply dodgy company of Livestrong, it seems like a total waste of energy and money, preaching to the converted and undermining what should be a core value of the organisation, that cycling is not just about lycra-clad athletes. I'm pretty sure the values of the CTC could be advanced to greater effect and for less money by any number of other activities without getting involved in road racing, and I'm absolutely certain that I don't want my subs pissed away on this useless little vanity project for the trustees.
