Good Vibrations: Going Green

In these days of email, Facebook, Twitter, online bank statements, it is a rare event that anything arrives in your physical letterbox that is remotely exciting. But today, I got something that was! Amongst the erroneous bank statements (addressed to a former lodger), union rants & home insurance renewal statements, there was a hand-addressed letter. It clearly wasn’t a Christmas card as it was just a tiny bit soft. On opening, it was the autumn edition of Cycle Reading, the newsletter of Reading Cycle Campaign. Even more exciting is that I have my first ever double spread, on pages 8 & 9 (more than The Reading Chronicle or The Henley Standard ever afforded to me and the book!) dedicated to Good Vibrations: Crossing Europe on a Bike Called Reggie. It looks great. Very green ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks to Toby, the newsletter editor for including my piece. If you are reading this after having read the article, please note that the book is also now available in paperback, either via Amazon or, very soon, at the Reading branches of Waterstones. Enjoy the read! (And note how Reggie has been reunited with his spirtual home, AW Cycles.)
