Female cyclist needed by Radio 5 Live for Monday morning..
« on: 07 June, 2009, 07:45:46 pm »
Dear Russell

As I explained, we're looking for a female cyclist who could come on the breakfast show tomorrow morning to talk to us about the bikebelles site:

Looking good - Bike Belles

We've seen several comments online saying that some women feel patronised by the site, and we would like to have a discussion about it on the programme. It would be for 4/5 minutes tomorrow morning on the phone.

If anybody has a view and would like to get in touch, my number is 0208 624 9501.

Thanks and kindest regards

Sarah

"Choosing a bike"

Quote
On women's bikes the crossbar is dropped, allowing us to be more graceful getting on and off and to allow us to wear skirts when we cycle.

Sweet jebus. Do they really need someone to explain it to them?

My Mum's on that site - a nice article she wrote herself. She certainly doesn't cycle in skirts.

Yebbut - if you contacted them, you'd have to speak to Richard Bacon :o
