Should bicycles be registered? - Crikey (blog)
Google Cycling news &bull Feb 6, 2012
Fairfax columnist Bruce Guthrie reckons there's a case for compulsory registration of bicycles.

It would impose an ongoing financial burden on households, it would very likely be a deterrent to cycling, and it would require considerable resources to administer. The politics are so horrendous it's not likely to happen anyway (there are just too many households… Full Story »

Bikeradar.com &bull Jan 23, 2012
The Aggressor 2.0 sits in the middle of GT's entry-level range, losing out on the 1.0's cable-operated disc brakes and slightly longer travel fork, but bettering the bare bones 3.0's seven-speed transmission. It has potential as a gentle trail cruiser but the basic Suntour fork simply isn't up to… Full Story »

Guitar Ted Death Ride Invitational 2011: Ride Report Pt 1
Guitar Ted Productions &bull Aug 1, 2011
Well, as the post yesterday indicated, the Guitar Ted Death Ride Invitational was a success for 2011. It was a brutal ride, as it should be, but good times were had by all in attendance, it seems. The event started out with me setting up the tent in Hickory Hills on Friday evening. Wasn't long before Courtney showed up and we ended up chatting for several hours until the sun had set and we both were feeling it was about time to "head for the shed" as the old Iowa farmers… Full Story »

Interview: Phillip Darnton, former chairman of Cycling England
Bikeradar.com &bull Apr 9, 2011
Last October's 'Bonfire of the Quangos' was something of a bloodbath; a ruthless cost-cutting exercise by the UK's coalition government that saw 192 public bodies - or 'quasi-autonomous non-governmental organisations', to give them their full name - axed. Big-hitters such as the UK Film Council saw the guillotine fall, but it was the dissolution of Cycling England that'll have the biggest impact on the cycling community. England and get 'more people cycling, more safely and more often'. The emphasis was on new cyclists, rather than existing cyclists, doing more. Despite evidence that it… Full Story »
