He'll have books to sign and be happy to do a Q &amp; A. His book "Bike Nation: How Cycling Can Save The World" is pretty much required reading for campaigners and decision makers. I asked for Cllr Nick Cook to get a copy earlier this year as part of my Pedal on Parliament donation. I can only hope he's read it!</p> <p>There will also be two rides (an infrastructure safari and leisure ride), and some presentations from groups across Scotland talking about their cycling activities. </p> <p>Book a free spot: <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cycling-uk-scotland-2017-gathering-and-agm-tickets-37943469940">https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cycling-uk-scotland-2017-gathering-and-agm-tickets-37943469940</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17025#post-234715 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 22:04:04 +0000 Claire 234715@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Yes the AGM is only voteable by members. I suspect we will ask on the day for non-members to refrain from voting, have a list of members and ask them to sit separately from non-members for voting purposes. I can confirm with the committee. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17025#post-234695 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 18:29:28 +0000 Blueth 234695@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>If it's open to all then presumably one will have to show a membership card in order to be able to vote on any motions? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17025#post-234689 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 17:54:16 +0000 Claire 234689@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hello folks, I am being a bit cheeky and bumping this in case anyone would like to attend the event next Saturday. </p> <p>Day includes:<br /> - a Spokes cycling infrastructure safari<br /> - Cycling UK Scotland AGM (this should take no more than 30 mins)<br /> - lunch (nom)<br /> - pecha kucha session from tourers, campaigners and member groups<br /> - update on new branding, change of name etc<br /> - keynote talk from Kate Rawles, who cycled the spine of North America and wrote up her adventures in her book "The Carbon Cycle". </p> <p>Co-incidentally, Kate launches her second edition of The Carbon Cycle with Word Power Books this Sunday with the Radical Book Fair at <a href="http://www.word-power.co.uk/viewEvent.php?id=3350">OOTB Drill Hall. </a> The book is an excellent read (touring and science, yay) and she is a great presenter, so if you have two shots to see her :) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17025#post-233843 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 13:29:54 +0000 chdot 233843@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"</p> <p>LOCATION<br /> City of Edinburgh Methodist Church<br /> 25 Nicolson Square</p> <p>"</p> <p>Nice space/cafe </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17025#post-233837 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 13:12:21 +0000 Suzanne Forup 233837@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The Cycling UK Scotland AGM and Gathering is on 5 November - it's not just for members so please do come along if you are interested in hearing about what we've been up to over the last year.
