London is a big city, and as we trundle past on closed roads during The Big Ride it’s vital that ordinary Londoners and visitors too understand why we’re calling for change or enjoy our passing. We’ll be printing out and laminating a range of slogans on A4 for distribution at the start of the ride, and we’re taking suggestions for slogans here up to the morning of Friday 16th May. Here’s a draft list of what we’re printing out and a few images of what’s inspiring us:
I want to ride but I don’t feel safe
Cycle Paths – build them and we’ll come
Kids need Space For Cycling
20mph where people live
20mph for Hammersmith Bridge
I want a COMPLETE cycle network
and so on…
If you think you can carry an A3 sign, let us know, we might be able to do those as well. Flags we leave to you to paint yourselves, but they’re great inspiration.
