METALIDADS is a dad group and mental health support network, we're currently raising for Eto, a preloved kids' store and community café. Some of us dads are cycling the length of the A470, which is 300km on static bikes in the shop.

Counterpoint to the £291m news for active travel investment in England. The junction capacity scheme at junction 10 of the M25 is budgeted at £317m and this week, we've heard it has been delayed for completion due to weather and that figure's going up.
