Cyclists in the Lancaster area who fancy a spot of creative film-making are being asked to submit short pieces for a competition.
“Cycling Shorts” is being hosted by Lancaster City Council and the local Dukes Theatre and films about all aspects of cycling, from road racing to BMX and commuting, are welcome.
According to the organisers, films should depict cycling in the Lancaster District but those showing Lancashire and/or Cumbria are allowed.
There are three categories: under-16, over-16 and one-minute mobile phone films. Entries should be sent on a DVD or CD in the following formats - wma, mpeg, mpg, 3gp, avi, mov and mp4 to:
Celebrating Cycling
Morecambe Town Hall
Marine Road, Morecambe
LA4 5AF.
Please make sure you include your full contact details.
Alternatively you can upload your film to youtube.com. Once you have uploaded your film go to www.youtube.com/group/cyclingshorts - choose ‘Join this Group’ and then choose ‘Add Videos’.
Once you have done this please send an email to celebratingcycling [at] lancaster.gov.uk (please do not send files to this address) or call 01524 582392/582616.
• Films should not be more than 3 minutes in length (1 minute for mobile phone films).
• You should keep your original as we may need this for the gallery screening.
• Films should not contain any swearing, indecent images or scenes of violence.
• Films should not contain commercial or copyrighted music and/or content.
The closing date is Friday September 18th and prizes will be awarded to the winning films in each of the three categories. Selecting films will be shown at the Dukes Theatre in October.
Police are busy these days looking on social media for for right posts and are no longer dealing with real crime.
Just ignore whatever ban or signs and cycle through it. Nothing much they can or will do about it anyway.
Cheaper and easier simply to tell them to do one, surely? Or just to ignore them? It would never have occurred to me to wear a lid for any reason...
For a rear brake hose plumbed into the left shifter and with a hose entry point on top of the down tube, I would do it like that too. You have to...
They can't, and they don't. But I am pretty sure this more a "Yes Men" style fake thing, albeit with a less political agenda, to perhaps make fun...
That's 36 bikes on 18 Sheffield stands. And whilst the the cheaper shed looks impressive, there doesn't appear to be an easy way to lock up the frame.
Better than 16000 miles for £250?
What the protesters mean is - we need the road space for our cars.
Agree - it is a bit triggering....
That's portly. It means the smooth 3D printing looks cool but just adds weight.
