As the local election campaign nears, things are starting to get busy! Not only has We Walk, We Cycle, We Vote been gaining new supporting organisations almost faster than we can keep up (see here for the full list – so far!), we’ve had people at the last three party conferences, spreading the word.
In Glasgow, we were grateful to GoBike for taking our message to the Green party last weekend

This weekend was the SNP’s conference in Aberdeen – but the real good news came first from Glasgow

Hopefully a little cargo-bike love from the Aberdeen Cycle Forum will help persuade other parties to follow suit, up and down the country
