    I presume our resident bike poets are attending?

    Oil your microphone, inflate your poetry and check the tension in your performance — Edinburgh Festival of Cycling and Inky Fingers are joining together to proudly present the world’s ever cycling-themed poetry slam! For one night only, breathless performance poets and oily-fingered newcomers will compete together in a pedal to the finish. Expect poems on wheels, greased verse, SPOKEn word, terrible puns, and no lycra whatsoever (probably). Come to watch, come to vote on the acts, come to compete, come to enjoy yourself — the bike slam is open to all. Email inkyfingersedinburgh@gmail.com for more details, the full rules, or to sign up to compete (slots limited).

  2. Rather disappointingly I can't :(

    I'd recommend people going along though - Inky Fingers have connections with some cracking poets, adn trust me, you'll laugh your socks off.

    Ahh I really wanted to goto this- I've been writing more at the moment and wanted to get to a slam and see if my stuff could be converted to this style (Long hours on the bike give me time to think about poetry and also comebacks to insults people gave me 6-12 years ago)

    Apart from not being available it's in the forest. I don't goto the forest. #unapologeticrationalhatred
