Those who follow this blog from time to time will know that I've been concerned about the effect mountain bikers are having on the hill where I live. So, I was quite pleased to be invited to attend a debate about, "The Surrey Cycling Strategy Consultation", last night at Surrey University and being broadcast live on BBC Radio Surrey - with excerpts of the debate being aired on the early morning programme this morning.
Here is a BBC I Player of the debate:- http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01k5y0c
Having waited for over an hour of the 90 minute debate listening to issues relating to road racing and road closures - together with their effects, my own rather awkward contribution occurred around 1hour and 11minutes into the debate and, although the hand microphone I was given doesn't pick it up, a BBC sound engineer told me that my closing comment had raised the loudest laugh of the evening.
