Earls Court Bike Show
Today Molly and Bert visited the Bike Show at Earls Court. We had so much fun! The place was packed with every kind of bike and cycle nut (in the nicest possible way). The mayor's plans for London cycling are very exciting - we got to try out the prototype of the new London Rental Bikes today. Not the most elegant ride, but such a great idea, we can't wait for it to happen. And as for the cycling 'super-highways', all we can say is 'about time'!
We were only there for three hours, but really squeezed our money's worth out of it, trialing all kinds of two wheeled rides from sit-up-and-begs to single gears via full on mountain bikes. We watched all manner of daredevils hopping, spinning and generally wowing us mere mortals with their biking control, and spoke to X number of experts about what's best for a city ride. All in all a top day out for Molly and Berts!
