Funding announced by central Government today could provide the much needed investment for a cycling revolution in cities and national parks across England. This is fantastic news for those living in the areas that benefit from the funding: it now needs to spread to every part of the UK, so that we can tackle the current reality of just one in fifty local trips being made by bike. As MPs continue their break from the UK Parliament I hope you will join me in writing to your local MP, urging them to attend the Get Britain Cycling debate in Parliament on 2 September that will seek support from MPs for recommendations made in the Get Britain Cycling report. Cycling has been on the verge of receiving the necessary support from government before – let’s make sure this opportunity is taken, and travel by bike becomes the common-sense choice that it should be. Thanks for your support, Malcolm Shepherd, Sustrans
