Hi Grandad, it's working just fine on my computer- so it's certainly not just for smartphones. Hope you can get it working

Seems to have expired early:

"This promotion is no longer valid. Please contact the creator for help."

The link appeared in a tweet in my twitter feed this morning. It's been doing the rounds since.

An update has been posted in the last few minutes, the maximum number of free uses on the promo code has been exceeded

What rot! Should it not have said if there was a maximum number of copies?

Also, this is one of my favourite photos - the Dutch Prime Minister going to visit the King...

Thanks to Gaz for the tip-off. This is a film I've wanted to watch for some months, and I've just finished it. Really worth the 55 minutes.Some interesting thoughts about the intangible aspects of cycling (culture, interaction, mutual trust) as much as the tangibles (health and economic benefits)
I first learned about the film from the wonderful @fietsprofessor on twitter - worth following.

I just followed the link - currently £5.71 to rent for 24 hours or £24.46 to stream anytime :shock:
