Whilst Edinburgh City Council is planning a transformation for cycling (and more) we hope you have had a cycling transformation already! So, for our 2018 summer competition, we’d like to know what has brought the biggest positive transformation in your cycling life in recent years.
It might be some advice from a friend (or from Spokes!), an improved cycle facility, buying a shopping bike-basket, seeing your child cycling to school every day, a new bike shed, a resurfaced road on your daily commute, joining a group such as Edinburgh Belles or All Ability Cycling – the possibilities are endless! [Also participating in the CCE Forum]
So, tell us what transformed your cycling life – you could win a great prize plus some modest fame – and maybe other people will benefit from your experience too!
Importantly, you must also explain why it transformed your cycling life – we will be judging the “why” as much as the “what.”
Note that if your entry refers to a place, it must be in Edinburgh or the Lothians. If you’ve been to Copenhagen or Amsterdam, that may have transformed your cycling life, but it won’t count for our competition!
