Dear cycle campaigners
It has been mentioned on another thread that there is a view amongst some campaigners that cycle training doesn't work. That the roads are too dangerous. While many do agree that there is value in training people to ride it occurs to me that those who are questioning this may not have experienced training themselves.
Just like The Association of Bikeability Schemes is offering MPs across the country a bikeability training session so they can debate the issues from an informed stance at the parliamentary debate in september. Perhaps campaigners who have yet to get training (many have I know) should also see what it is like. You may be surprised...
