Tour Series logo 2010Halfords Tour Series calls for volunteers
The Halfords Tour Series organisers have put out a call this morning for volunteers to help at all the race venues coming up; that's London's Canary Wharf, Durham, Portsmouth, Exeter, Southport, Kettering, Peterborough, Stoke-on-Trent, Chester and Woking.
You can see the full programme and dates in our previous story here. The first 50 people to sign up at each of the ten venues will each receive a Halfords Tour Series goody bag!
According to the organisers, "What make The Halfords Tour Series so successful? Its volunteers! If you want to be part of the most exciting criterium racing series the country has ever seen and can spare some of your time, then please get in touch."
They're asking you to send an email to kathryn [at] thetour.co.uk providing your name and surname, email address and contact telephone number and you’ll be signed up. And if you have any questions on what is expected of you, don't hesitate to ask in your email.
There was a Tony Robinson documentary about the Thames at night on Channel 5 iirc, where they go clean the Blackwall tunnel regularly at night. ...
The other thing about those bike stands is where are they? It looks like a residential street. So who is going to use them? No one would be daft...
It was "only" the security man's hand, not his life. And it was only a cyclist's property. Case closed....
By all means introduce the 'cycle tax' in the UK and EU. But then build a contiguous, comprehensive and high quality network of cycle lanes first....
Another Driverless car - oh. ...
Appears that the scheme installation has now been paused:...
Actually, having recently bought a cheaper, new helmet to replace a more expensive (but cracked) one, I would say that more expensive is better. ...
It's a lot of money for a simple-looking little tool, but I've been very happy with previous Dynaplugs - they are super effective.
A couple of call-outs from the Guardian piece:...
Well that'll be the famous BBC balance.
