Well, it wasn't a big ride, with just 19 people taking part, but we had fun, made cycling visible and encountered some complete idiots who need their 2 ton weapons removing from beneath them. The driver of a bright red Audi on Nunnery Lane expended much petrol revving, overtaking (twice) and generally being an idiot without any gain for himself, other than a nice picture showing that he, like a notable group of York's drivers, has no concern whatsoever for cycle lanes or cyclists. No one was hurt, but as one person put it later "we gave as good as we got", verbally of course.

Next months ride will probably also be small, but that's no excuse not to show up. On Friday August 3rd we'll be returning to the streets of York to promote cycling, sustainability and fun, same time and same place.
