• Look Mum No Hands are hosting the premier of this new documentary short about the legend that is Eileen Sheridan. Eileen will then take a few questions from the audience.

    Hippy was presented by Eileen the West London BAR trophy (she now makes glass trophies used in distance cycling awards) and is by all accounts a lovely woman whose joy in cycling is infectious.

    Hope you can make it. Unfortunately I'll be in a field somewhere...

  • It was actually the West London BAR trophy she presented me with.

    She's packs a lot of punch for such a small unit. Her bio Wonder Wheels is a great read with loads of record breaking anecdotes from cycling's golden* era.

    • when everyone rode for transport and seemed to love riders rather than a few people winning Olympic medals
  • OK sorry hippy, wrong trophy! Yeah from the short film she seems like a great soul.

  • I saw her speak about her end-to-end record a couple of months ago as part of a fundraising drive for her local church roof. An incredible woman, really amazing.

  • C'mon who's coming to see it?

  • I fancy it. Will see if I can encourage more of the ladies to come along too.

  • Can't wait for the DVD version.

  • Sounds great!

  • It's in the diary. I've seen her speak briefly once before, at a Hammersmith cycling film show, years ago.

  • Thanks in advance for supporting it you lovely people. Please retweet and all that jazz!

    LMNH deserve props for hosting this.

  • I'll be there as well.

    Oh wait, just noticed it's at Mare Street... maybe not then.

  • ummm Y U NO go to Mare Street?

  • East.

  • Not you too?

    Hackney's one of the best bits of London. Deal with it.

  • I jest. Not really. West is best.

    I'm away quite a few weekends coming but I won't know for sure until closer to the Friday.

  • is by all accounts a lovely woman whose joy in cycling is infectious.

    This. An absolute legend. Well worth the trip East.

  • Ok so can we make a list of who's coming? I'm going to be asking the questions! So if you have any let me know!
    I am so VERY EXCITED about this. Also to see some peeps from here that I've not seen in ages...
