Women is a problem for us. We are right down in female cycling numbers.

I like the idea of a lunchtime bozza-bike ride.

Is their one alpha female at the office clive? You need one. An influencer, someone the other women like and can relate to, to lead the charge.
Or, and this is very un-PC of me, is there a woman in the office who wants to lose weight? If you can get one making a noticable improvement the rest will take it up. The trick is to get her onside without insulting or suggesting that her weight is an issue.
Failing a woman, a man whom the women like - not fancy - but who regularly has interacts with them and who is seen to be on a simillar level would fit the bill.

how did it go clive? I was going to add to this but most of the issues have been covered. I know a firm in central london that bought a fleet of bromptons and that's worked really well - to go to client meetings employees are encouraged to cycle. I believe that this is has been complimented by regular maintenance and allowances for maintenance for employee bikes at the chosen shop (discounts on tyres, tubes and labour)

As for women cycling. I hate to say it, but fear and vanity were the two most important factors in the decision to cycle in to work in the last studies I read. (in 2007) and I can honestly say I believe it.

Additionally a short employee ride durring lunch times would probably get new cyclists more confident.

depending on how quick you want it jas - I should be in NY in 4-6weeks, or I know someone going next week...

nice one joe :)

so, who's coming to play bikes and show off their taches??

I wish we had something like this in Manchester!

Yo, 1978 - just come down for it. If you do I'll ensure you get a ticket. Nothing compares to London I promise..do you really need an excuse?? Come.

Hey Cedywedy - we've been thinking about it, so stay tunned. All the mince pies about now were making me think about it quite a bit this week. (i cant stomach them at all now)

@skully - thats funny!
um dogs, ...sadly, I don't think preying on them sexually will work :)

**that video had me laughin out loud.

Thai cottage on D'Arblay st in Soho is a winner..

I'm making a new soup today. Parsnip and ginger.
I sauteed oinions and garlic in the base, then added half the parsnip and cooked til golden. The added the remaining parsnip, the chunks of ginger a nutmeg a sprig of thyme and some homemade stock. Its now simmering for an hour. Then I'll remove the ginger and nutmeg and puree the rest.
It already smells really nice... can't wait.

i used to tell everyone how great mine was, now (that the second one has died) I am not very keen on them..

thought you fellow coffee lovers might be interested in this..

To celebrate all the terrible tashes of Movember... 27.11.10
I thought we should have a bit of fun! I’d like to invite all of you who have been growing ‘taches and those who have been putting up with you to come down and have some fun at the Nude Roastry.
Movember is just about at an end, and we’d like to celebrate with everyone who took part and raised money for the charity.
We’ve planned a moustache graffiti / photo competition,(rules to be confirmed) a raffle / scavenger hunt and nude’s chef will be baking up some of the best chocolate brownies you’ve ever tasted for us. Prizes all courtesy of Nude roastry.

Nude won the best coffee competition in 2010 and they have now openend their roastry just off brick lane.
The prize for the competition and the raffle are almost certainly going to be coffee beans :)
Plus for all the participants coffee on the day is going to be "by donation" to the charity..

Come for coffee, join the competition, then come for the ride to the pub :)
