Following on slightly from SRD's post about leaflets etc. for those of you who prefer a more virtual engagement with the world we're also asking as many people as possible to blog about why they're going to POP2 (assuming you *are* going, of course) so we can get the word out that way as well. It doesn't matter if you've got a bike-related blog or not - in fact it's almost better if you've got a non-bikey blog as that reaches a whole new audience...

Good point sallyhinch.
@SRD: I distributed the bike-strip-fliers in 24 hours (without even resorting to doing the ones at the university - which I assume will be done repeatedly over the next few weeks). So I'll need more! Although could probably print some (do you have a pdf or whatever of the bike-fliers?).
Neuroscience and Informatics (Forum+AT) are (imminently) covered.
Thanks!
Mike

Umm... I can blog about it of course but unfortunately I didn't go last year and I can't go this year....

Were you aware of PoP?
If not, the fact that you are now might be worth a blog.
Also if you have noticed any 'change in attitude' about cycling over the past year - esp among colleagues and friends.

Yes, I was a member of this forum this time last year. I was away that weekend, otherwise I would ahve gone along. Same this year.
I guess I will blog, I'm just not sure what "angle" to take, as it were!!!

'Why I would have gone to POP' is as good as 'why I'm going' - all publicity gratefully accepted

Anyone got a convenient photos of hordes of cyclists from last year that I can borrow for the blog? There's loads online, but if someone here can save me the effort of contacting someone about copyright that would be delightful!
Cheers

I published a piece on this blog. It's a political blog, not a cycling blog.

Same piece on my own blog (which is a lot about cycling).
