This is the audio for the Bike Week special, recorded on 13 June.
Guest in the studio is Barry Mason of Southwark Cyclists. Features recordings of Bike Fest in the Square and highlights from the past 12 months of The Bike Show.
The show was 90 minutes long, so this is a larger-than-usual download.

Bonjour, mes tres bons rouleurs,
I am in the process of migrating the BIke Show podcast files to a new home in Sunny San Francisco, courtesy of the nice people at Radio 4 All. This may take some time, so please be patient.
In the meantime, point your podcasting software at the following feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheBikeShow
Eventually all the shows will be available here.
The podcast is accessible from iTunes 4.9 (menu: Advanced: Subscribe to Podcast), but for some reason the Bike Show does not appear in the iTunes podcast directory. Anyone who can advise me of how I can fix this, please do!

Unexpectedly high demand for the Podcast syndication of the Bike Show has caused me to massively overshoot the bandwidth limits on my web server.
As a result I have had to suspend the Podcast syndication facility. However, I will be looking for a way around this. In the meantime, I will continue to provide the Bike Show in streaming Real Audio from the following site (and linked to from the blog):
www.unstablesound.net/bike.html
I will endeavour to put the MP3 files up for manual downloading as well.
Sorry about this, my strong suspicion is that the surge in demand was as a result of the latest version of iTunes being Podcast-compatible.
If anyone has any tips on where I can inexpensively host the Podcast MP3 files and not overrun bandwidth limits, please let me know!
Thanks for your consideration and support.
Jack
