CCE has been asked to be a partner in "a project around winter cycling".
"
We are initiating this project over the next few weeks and are looking for ambassadors who want to be part of this project and help celebrate and change winter cycling. We dont believe that change happens through telling people - we believe that you have to show them - lead by example. Therefore we will be producing a small film showing the local stories and celebrating what people love about their communities, and the work they're doing around celebrating and changing winter cycling. This will be featured on different online channels to celebrate and bring focus to local communities and help create real change.

At n0tice, which is a new social network from The Guardian - kind of like a noticeboard for local communities - we're passionate about cycling and we want to keep people on their bike even through the dark winter months. We shouldn't just focus on the bad things like staying safe on the dark roads, but the great things - how beautiful a city can look in the dark or the feeling of speeding through the rain. In a nutshell, we want to get people together and celebrate what's great about cycling in winter and help make real change about the things that are not so great.

We have London Cycling Campaign, The Cycle Hub Newcastle, Robert Penn (Cycle Guy column, The Sunday Times) and Chris Catchpole (Cycling Weekly) as partners and would love to inspire Edinburgh folk to stay on their bikes during the colder months,
We appreciate that time is a precious thing for our partners so we’re just asking for their thoughts and experiences on Winter Cycling in a post, and we think yours would be extremely valuable
the post would then be published on the #keepcycling campaign board on n0tice for our launch on Monday

WELL - CCE members are known for encouraging each other (and others) to keep cycling through the winter - and whatever the weather generally!
So I'll start a new thread.
