[quote="Roy Green"]Amy, what about the glam pic I took of you at the Club Dinner this year?
Roy
Ye gods, NO
I'm sure there's some better shots - used to have nice of me sitting on a Welsh reservoir or what about that one of Michelle and me on the ToBM trimmed down?
Come on, Sean, why have you suddenly decided to pick up on this seasonal debate?
To be honest, I don't really mind there not being many female members. Cycling to me has always been a mostly male preserve (though the CTC section I was in had quite a number of women, quite a few of whom were/are also Kingston Phoenix) and I don't have a problem with that.
All we can do is welcome the women who do come along and if they leave, find out why. One reason I've always thought is that it's harder for a woman to have a pasttime of cycling than it is for a man to if their partners are non-cycling. After all how many men in the club are in some sort of relationship with a partner who cycles with them or with a club (either the ACC or another)? Even I've had the 'you're not going out on your bike again' conversation .... with my mother
Snoop, like your post - I'll just join you in the bunker
