  • Touring Bike Buyer's Guide
    TOURING BIKE BUYER’S GUIDE By Mike Deme I’ve held many job titles in my days at version, I went back and reread each of the previous guides. Not only did I find each writer’s approach very informative but enter - the Adventure Cycling Association, one taining as well. Despite the positive qualities of the articles, I felt they were a bit repetitive, but not for any fault of the writers. It’s of which was Information Specialist. In just that there hasn’t been any major advances in touring bike design recently so there is only so much to discuss. Influenced by that capacity, I was charged with these talented people, including Sheldon Brown, Fred Meredith, Tom Shaddox, and Fred Matheny, I thought I’d try a less techni - answering questions posed to the organ - cal approach. Carry on. So why don’t people interested in a bike designed for loaded ization as a whole, which were then, as touring have the same options as someone interested in a bike designed for road racing or mountain biking? The answer is sim - they are now, plenteous. At least half of ple: economics. Manufacturers and retailers want to sell a lot of bikes. The more they sell, the more money they make. And they these questions concern touring bikes. just don’t sell a lot of touring bikes. For those people who may have a chip on their shoulder about this, please, remove it now. It’s not helpful. The reality is The touring bicycle has been discussed, on and off, in the that fewer people like to tour by bicycle than like to participate in pages of Bike Report and Adventure Cyclist magazine, for as long as almost all other forms of cycling.

  • Mayor's Report November 2017
    16th Mayor’s Report to the Assembly MQT – 16th November 2017 This is my sixteenth Mayor’s Report to the Assembly, fulfilling my duty under Section 45 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999. It covers the period from 29 September – 2 November 2017. Executive Summary Government cuts lead to reduction of police front counters On 1 November, I confirmed plans to reduce the number of police front counters in London and save an additional £8 million – equivalent to the cost of 140 police constables – in order to protect and support frontline policing as much as possible, and keep Londoners safe, in the face of Government cuts to police funding. These cuts to Metropolitan Police funding mean police officer numbers in London are falling, and this has meant we have had to consult on drastic measures in order to prioritise public safety and police officers on the beat. Warning police numbers will fall to 19-year low without more funding On 30 October, I made my strongest warning to date over Government police cuts as I called on the Chancellor to use next month’s Budget to end the funding crisis which is putting lives at risk at a time of rising crime, rising population and an unprecedented terror threat in the capital. I warned that police numbers in London would fall as dangerously low as 27,500 by 2021 without additional funding – the lowest level in 19 years. This would represent one police officer per 326 Londoners, compared to one officer per 242 Londoners in 2010 - a fall of 26 per cent.
