Intelligence Squared logo.jpgDebating forum Intelligence Squared hosts Cycling Festival next month
Intelligence Squared – or, as they put it, Intelligence² - which bills itself as “the world’s premier debating forum” and whose past speakers include Richard Dawkins, Damien Hirst and Stephen Fry, will be holding a Cycling Festival on the evening of Thursday 8 September.
Chaired by hotelier and cycling enthusiast Rocco Forte, the evening brings together Bella Bathurst, author of The Bicycle Book, novelist, Geoff Dyer, London School of Cycling founder Patrick Field, writer Will Self and, someone who needs no introduction to fans of cycling, Graeme Obree.
Tickets for the event, at the Royal Geographical Society on Kensington Road, cost £15 or £10 for students. Full details of the event, which starts at 6.45pm and finishes at 8.30pm, can be found on the Intelligence Squared website, which will also be streaming the event for free on the evening itself.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

TBF I think that's before she saw the light and got on her bike. Not so great if her views have been informed by Mr. Briggs though.
That's a great price. Just bear in mind Import duty and handling charges will be applied pre delivery.
Yep, I appreciate your problem. I wouldn't buy a bike without at least sitting on the same frame configuration on a trainer in the shop, something...
