There's a great event happening as part of the 60th anniversary celebrations for the Festival of Britain. Basically they are recreating the Floral Bike Parade. If you're in the Haringey area, the parade will leave the Bruce Castle Museum at 2pm and then travel to the South Bank where other cyclists will be waiting. At 4pm the parade will set off on a circuit around the Southbank Centre. Cyclists are encouraged to cover their bikes and clothing in floral motifs. There will be special bike decoration stations at the Southbank Centre (level 1 outside Royal Festival Hall, 2-4pm) when you arrive so you can give yourself some real petal power. Sounds like it could be fun...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
