Pedal on Parliament

Took the boys to join the masses on the Pedal on Parliament  ride from the Meadows to the Scottish Parliament. It was a great day out even though it wasn't as warm as in the last few days. 

There are so many reasons for encouraging cycling. I've been going on about some of it before. Air pollution is the number one preventable cause of death. Cycling reduces air pollution substantially. It obviously also keeps us fit and healthy. It would also solve one of my main dislikes of living in a city: the fact that it is stuffed with cars (mostly parked) and full of traffic noise.

Bring on more cycling!
