I would certainly like to be part of it if I could time wise. In a few weeks I will be away for another few weeks. This is just the sort of thing we need. Its long overdue.

I'm considering putting together a youtube-style advertisement, urging for the care of cyclists. I believe it's growing in need, and I have the ability to film it, so I may as well be the one to put it together.

I'm actually quite excited, as last year I was there to take photos, and it was the event that originally had me excited about riding for charity.Nearly a year later, and I realise that 40kms isn't much at all - I mean, just today I'd done more that that before lunch.But I am riding a fixed bike for the whole thing, and there is a part that may concern me - the West-gate bridge. I'm sure it'll be…See More
Carole Whitehead replied to matthew's discussion Free bike lights."Hey Matthew,

Hey all,
Just giving a plug for someone on twitter I follow (@will_watt), who takes a photo on Melbourne's streets, once a day.
This time around, he snapped a photo of a fast cyclist.
