Specifically, "Achievements in Cycling
Cycling Scotland – freshnlo Pedal for Scotland"So a 'fun' ride sponsored by a huge dairy firm is Scotland's "achievement" in cycling over the past year? Must try harder, Scotland!
Mind you, Scotrail were public transport operator of the year, and Glasgow Airport were airport of the year. All a bit meaningless really.

Newsflash - Scottish Government civil servant casts vote for Scottish Government-backed award scheme to give first prize to Scottish Government-backed organisation.
Now that Cycling Scotland have achieved so much
positive press for the milk industryfor cycling in Scotland I look forward to making full use of all the facilities that their relentless campaigning for more and better funding for cycling are going to pay for.Maybe we could mirror the huge success of Boris's blue Barclays bikes and bike lanes and have lovely black and white cow-print Wiseman Lanes?
