Cycleclips: Does the camera lie?

Post by soapbox »

The April/May issue of 'Cycle', promoting cycling together, is, I'm sure, just a result of unfortunate timing with print deadlines, but today's emailed 'Cycleclips' contains an article about how CyclingUK have complained about being misrepresented in the press with photographs seemingly showing cyclists riding in groups.
Surely we need to be apologising for promoting riding in groups right now, rather than going on the offensive.

Acknowledging print dates. I think we are ok because Cycle is a limited circulation "club" magazine which the general public is extremely unlikely to see, versus mas circulation newspapers etc.

Don't be silly.
