Apologies for this roundup being a day late, which was due to the wrong kind of internet on the line. And, just to delay you a little more - please take a moment to sign the petition in support of the Get Britain Cycling report if you haven't already - oh, and book your place on the Cycling Embassy gathering and AGM while you're at it.
