From Tameside with love - thanks to @aLazyrider

February the 14th is always a busy day for the postman at this blog, let me tell you.  First there's all the post to get through the inadequately sized letter box, then the parcels and all the things which need signatures - a nightmare!
But this year, my mind wont be on the endless demands for unconditional love, it will, in fact be in committee room two of Tameside Council's Wellington Road building in Ashton (revolving door entrance).

The revolving door and lightening strike warning - bizarre 

But why I hear you cry?
Well, Tameside Council has chosen the day of St Valentine to hold  public consultation event, a cycling workshop no less, to plan how the riding of the bicycles can be promoted in The Tameside.
This is an important opportunity to input into the Local Plan - just a shame its on during work hours - 16.15 - 18.15.
I ride through Tameside a lot and it's fair to say that there isn't too much evidence for cycling ever being on the agenda in the corridors of power before.  So this is to be welcomed.
