News blog

Trying out a new way of updating the Home Page for Bristol Cycling Campaign's website using Google blogger. It should mean that we can add content more easily and that should mean we can do more updates more often. Simply scroll down to see older blog posts or click through to the blog itself. We're now tweeting - see the panel on the right. Feedback welcome but we have limited resource for making changes - if you can help do get in touch using the "Contact" link at top right.

Building Cycling Cultures Conference

I attended this event last weekend and it was very interesting - a lot of ill-informed coverage has appeared in the press so I shall be writing a report to let you know what it's really all about. Meanwhile you can see a few photos of the Architecture Tour that I went on. Regards, Martin McD

Bridge Valley Road - UPDATE

Latest news is that Bridge Valley Road should be open to cyclists on some weekends - they have said possible alternate weekends but i's liable to change so don't count on it. Some cyclists reckon the zig-zags are a reasonable alternative although there are some steps - any other suggestions for an easier route?
