I have been the cycle officer for Warwickshire County Council since 1999. I am 63 years old engineer trained and I cycle between 1500 and 2000 miles a year. I live 10 miles from the office and try to cycle once a week March to October. The local roads are not suitable for cycle commuting during the hours of darkness. I believe the British culture needs waking up to cycling and am convinced that public information TV is the way to go about it.
