NATIONAL ROAD SAFETY WEEK

It's National Road Safety week 19th - 25th November. What are you doing to help make our roads a safer place to be? Stuck for ideas but want to get involved? Here's 3 really good ideas;

1. Request your local MP to sign the Early Day Motion 679 "Get Britain Cycling" the only catch is only 'Back Bench MPs' can sign it however even if your MP isn't a 'Back Bench MP' you are still raising awareness of public demand which is great. Follow this link to fill out the form

2.Write to your local Councillor/MP/MEP via this link to request 20mph where you live;

3. Email Adam Coffman coffmana@parliament.uk before 5th December 2012 to support the "Get Britain Cycling" campaign  relaying the many benefits of cycling and The Times Cycle Safe campaign Manifesto;

Too hard too choose? Why not do all 3 and feel really good about yourself...

Happy cycling and thanks for taking a step to making our roads safer for everyone.
