Make sure it's full and there's not enough room for a bed otherwise you'll be out there as well as the bikes :-) Important things to have :- Electricity. Heating, tea bags, comfy chairs then all your mates can cycle round and you can swap yarns. Friends, that's what all cycle havens should have in t...

But which government wants to be the one that legalises class "A" drugs, again too radical and yet again the vulnerable suffer at the hands of criminals. Some of the biggest criminals wear suits and inhabit parliament and the stock exchange. I think if we started giving out free drugs, we...

I'm also thinking about weekends for swinging cyclists where after a nice cup of tea, participants swap cycle clips and go for a spin round the block on an unknown beauty (remember - safe cycling - bring your own rain cape!) . top plan, if you also include cakes:D Could you send me details in a PLA...
