This is the '''cycling portal''', the navigation point leading to most cycling articles. {{portal-tl-start|General cycling interest}} These are general documents on cycling subjects. * [[My bikes]] - It sometimes is about the bike, whatever that Mr Armstrong says. * [[Cycling culture ]] - culture, people and events. Cyclefest pictures this way, ladies and gentlemen... * [[Letters]] in the press or to and from various politicians and organisations on cycling subjects. Most of my letters are categorised under individual campaigning agendas, these are the more general ones (or those I haven't got round to categorising yet). * [[Product reviews]] for cycling products I have used and would (or would not) recommend. Some good, some not so good. * [[Recumbents]] - some thoughts about the Dark Side, links, and other information * [[uk.rec.cycling]], the UK cycling newsgroup. I nearly put this under Culture but in the end much of what is on this site is informed by debates on usenet, and quite a few of the visitors come here from uk.rec.cycling, so I've put it here where it's easier to find. {{portal-bl-start|Some interesting links}} * [http://www.shscycles.co.uk St John Street Cycles], Britain's biggest online bike shop, which also exists as a dot-BAM in Bridgewater, Somerset. Here you will find people who actually understand touring! Imagine that! * [http://www.johnforester.com John Forester], author of Effective Cycling, a cycling advocate, and waging what occasionally seems to be a one-man war against the massed ranks of Government stupidity and vested interests. A very detailed site with much food for thought. * [http://www.dtlr.gov.uk Department for Transport], the UK's Department of Transport, Local Government and Regions. It's all their fault. * [http://www.wiggle.co.uk Wiggle], a brilliant online retailer, fast service and good prices. {{portal-tr-start|Campaigning}} Here you will find my thoughts and actions on campaigning issues. Cycle Helmets - Probably the most widely discussed and contentious campaigning topic in cycling today, cycle helmets receive a degree of attention which is wholly out of proportion to their actual merit. Here I have collected together some thoughts and analysis on the issue, including comments for educators and legislators. Some of this has been taken forward by the Bicycle Helmet Research Foundation, of which I am a member. Advocacy - General cycle advocacy, including an article on cycle commuting which has been surprisingly popular both here and on H2G2. Reasons to be cyclists, one, two, three... Sharing The Road - As if the weather and the wind were not enough to cope with, we also have to put up with hostility from motorists. All the usual human emotions are there: guilt, anger, targeting the "out group". Surely we are helping by not adding to the congestion? My article "Bloody cyclists!", one of the most viewed and linked on the site, is in this section. Laws, Rules and Regulations - Laws, rules and regulations covering cycling and cyclists. Here I discuss what the rules currently are, and why some of us should be more scrupulous in obeying them, as well as proposing some changes I'd like to see. Bicycle Lighting - A few thoughts on the vexed issue of bicycle lighting. {{portal-br-start|Indispensible resources}} Other cycling links - Links to other sites of interest [FSVO] [http://www.ctc.org.uk Cyclists' Touring Club] - The largest and oldest cycling organisation in the UK, please don't be too put off by their notoriously appalling "clubroom chat" section - the rest of the site is great. [http://www.lesberries.co.uk John Franklin] - Author of Cyclecraft, and a great place to go to find out about helmets and other safety issues. [http://www.sheldonbrown.com Sheldon Brown] - Sheldon Brown is a Bicycle God. On this website you will find things you didn't realise you wanted to know. [http://www.kenkifer.com Ken Kifer] - The late, much lamented Ken Kifer's wonderful site, full of useful and interesting stuff. Mirrored here following his death at the hands of a drunk, drugged-up driver. {{portal-br-end}}
