As the Mayor of London brought out a new 25 year transport strategy for the capital yesterday, is it worth a concerted effort to get the GLA to also take notice? This could easily be incorporated into the Congestion legislation. I'll look at the transport strategy (I have to look at the economic development one anyway for my job!) and report back - unless that's already happening.
The link to the strategy consultation is http://mts.tfl.gov.uk/Read-the-strategy.aspx. It is open from the 12th October until 12th January. Within the transport consultation are proposals around "the cycling revolution", "Better Streets and improved environment" & "Facilitating Freight" - all of which are suitable topics to raise and discuss the issues highlighted here.
It makes sense to me to take advantage of this consultation, and lobby this issue. Numbers always help with a consultation of this type, so the petition can be directly refered to.

Signed and tweeted (with a request to RT). "8 cyclists have died this year in London in HGV accidents. Help make the streets safer & sign this petition. http://bit.ly/n7XMv (PLS RT)"

Just in case you didn't see the post yesterday, so we can all keep track of all the different pictures and videos, please do post them to this flickr group. Cheers

Thanks Tricky Woo for the link.
Come on i know there is more than these 2! Get your pics up people!
Thought I'd create a Flickr group for these. I know there is a lfgss one, but it can be handy to keep all shots in one place. So stick your pix there.

Can anyone who took any pics get them up soon please! Let people who couldn't or didn't attend see what they missed.
Here you go - starter for ten.
Top day all - well done for organising and competing. Don't post the results tho. I came last on one of them.

Ola! Yup, it's been a while but we are back on it! Late June will see us at Bournemouth for the next few days routes. And we've updated the website - www.cyclearoundbritain.co.uk (though give me some time to get it up to date!).
Reason for the break? Well, my 6 month old son has had something to do with it - but glad to be back in the saddle!.
