Riding with Amy Fleuriot, a young British fashion designer who's Cyclodelic range of clothing and accessories is offering women a more stylish alternative to the typically drab clothing sold to cyclists.

Do the rising oil price, the growing concern about man-made climate change and breakthroughs in cycle design mean we're on the verge of a pedal-powered cargo revolution? Discussing the past, present and future of cargo bikes and pedicabs is Leslie Wacker, a Chicago native who placed second in the cargo bike race at this year's World Cycle Messenger Championships, Buffalo Bill author of Moving Target Zine and controller at Creative Couriers. We also hear from Mark, controller at from Zero Couriers, London's first and only dedicated cargo bike courier company about the challenges his company has faced convincing potential commercial clients to choose pedal-powered cargo delivery. 8Freight photo thanks to BikeFix.

Will Amy and her sit-up-and-beg town bike cut the mustard with the trackstanding, bike polo playing, long skidding, backwards circling Trixies? Find out...

Southwark Council plans to ban cyclists from a key stretch of the Thames Path, which runs along the south bank of the Thames, alongside the Tate Modern and the Globe Theatre. Jack Thurston canvases the (mixed) opinions of passersby and rapidly discovers that no one has been consulted about this proposed new byelaw. Koy Thomson, director of the London Cycling Campaign shares his perspective on the plans and argues for shared space. Amy Cooper reports on cycle training with Patrick Field and a new year's wish list of cycle-friendly policies for the next Mayor of London. For more on the draft byelaw banning cycling on the Thames Path, visit Southwark Cyclists' website. To make your views known to the two Southwark Councillors responsible for this policy area, you can email them directly: Lisa.Rajan@southwark.gov.uk Paul.Noblet@southwark.gov.uk Jeffrey.Hook@southwark.gov.uk It might be a good idea to forward or cc any emails you send on this to the redoubtable Barry Mason of Southwark Cyclists, who is leading the campaign against the byelaw: info@southwarkcyclists.org.uk MP3 #124; Other file formats (Ogg Vorbis etc) Advocacy,,London,,Podcast,,Politics,,Women Jack Thurston no No http://thebikeshow.net/15-january-2007-women-bike-messengers-and-a-ride-through-a-very-long-tunnel/ http://thebikeshow.net/15-january-2007-women-bike-messengers-and-a-ride-through-a-very-long-tunnel/#comments Tue, 16 Jan 2007 20:07:00 +0000 Jack Thurston http://thebikeshow.net/?p=78 http://thebikeshow.net/15-january-2007-women-bike-messengers-and-a-ride-through-a-very-long-tunnel/feed/ 5 29:20 Women bike messengers might cut a better figure on the roads than their grungy, bearded and tattooed male counterparts, but are the girls better at ... Women bike messengers might cut a better figure on the roads than their grungy, bearded and tattooed male counterparts, but are the girls better at their jobs than the boys? The answer is yes, if a handful of London's women bike messengers are to be believed. For details on the upcoming Roller Races, look here. We also have Hugo Gladstone riding with the Stourbridge Bicycle Users Group on a 'suburban secrets' adventure that takes in the 2.3 km Netherton canal tunnel. Wooohh!! Echoooohh!! And if you want to help the Bike Show and all Resonance fm's unique broadcasting stay on the air.... don't delay! You can donate to our emergency fund quickly and painlessly here. Remember, all the programme-makers and engineers on Resonance are unpaid. We need to raise Acirc;pound;60,000 now to pay for basic things like renting our studio (a damp and airless cave) and powering our antenna (a rusty coathanger tied to the top of a hospital). It's not rocket science but without donations from listeners, it will all come to an end very soon.
