(Though these days, due to unwanted spam 'attacks', people have to send an email - so a slight extra hurdle/commitment.)</p> <p>That's not to say they all still even look at CCE (though many more read without registering - perfectly acceptable). Some people post a lot, some have never posted. One person recently posted for the first time - four years after registering!</p> <p>All good. </p> <p>CCE has a strange mix of people (I mean that most sincerely!) with a range of interests and expertises that entertain and inform. </p> <p>I think there is a common enjoyment of bike riding (and for some, owning and fixing) and a general feeling that 'things could be better' - for themselves, family members and the public, generally, who don't (yet) feel able to cycle.</p> <p>I <em>think</em> CCE has shown that things can (be) change(d). Quite a few people have been active in organising PoP (and many more have taken part). CCEers are actively monitoring the 'infrastructure' - to an extent that shouldn't be necessary!</p> <p>Some people are cycling more often and/or further with help and encouragement from others here. </p> <p>AudaxUK seems to have gained more members too. </p>
