The obvious candidate is Adam Hart-Davis who has the 'dirty knees'
qualification but there must be alternatives which those of you with
televisions and sporty knowledge would know about.


Boris Jonstone?

No, I am vaguely serious. He is a Tory, I know, but he is well known as a
regular utility cyclist and is media-friendly in his own bizarre way.

Agreed: I think he would be excellent!

Yes, him or the presenter of that recent bbc programs about mapping who
went
over some of the lake district passes on a 100 year old bike ...
ah yes, Nicholas Crane http://www.tvfactual.co.uk/nicolas_crane.htm though
Adam
Hart's better known.

Funnily enough, my other half came up with exactly the same suggestions:
Nicholas Crane or Adam Hart-Davis.

Then there's the cycling journalist Simon Calder, possibly? Dunno? He does
seem to go everywhere on his Brommie - taking it on his travels abroad.

I'd be anti AHD because he's been backing a MHL organisation (damned if I
can remember who though)

No thanks. He'd want it made compulsary for cyclists to carry an umbrella
at all times.

Jon Snow seems like an OK bloke. I'm sure he'd say something different next
time he appeared on Dick and Judy.

Jeremy Paxman, the girl Stephanie something who did the BBC piece
without a helmet recently, John Cauldwell (now he's sold Phones4U he
will have time on his hands and has the cachet of being able to say he
prefers cycling the 200 miles to London for a meeting over taking the
helicopter)
