It's a
really simple initiative dreamt up by me, commuter
cyclist Gerry McBride. It had to be simple so that I
could understand it! :-)
Basically,
each month, on the 5th day, I encourage as many people
as I can to try an alternative method to the car for
getting around. It's called Don't drive on the 5.
The idea
is, that if you take the plunge and try cycling for that
day, public transport, lift share, run or walk you are
helping the environment, saving money and improving your
health, and you might like it and so try it again and
again.
I would
also like to take this 'about' opportunity to thank
Peter Riddell from British Cycling for nominating me to
carry the Olympic Flame in 2012! Pictured handing it
over to Councillor Denise Bunn Mayor of Redcar and
Cleveland for display in Kirkleatham Museum, Redcar.
Also pictured are Cllr Olwyn Peters and Peter Bunn.
