[publictransport] RRR Along for the ride - tonight

[Dallas Goldburg]

Hi all

Great work by everyone over the last week, let's keep the effort up and nail
this sucker.

Just a few things to follow up for me,

Last week the show on RRR promised the notice they read out would go up on
the rrr site, it hasn't.

This IS there though -

Get Along for the Ride, every Tuesday from 7-8pm until February on Triple R.

As mentioned on the January 22 show - if you'd like to provide input into
the Ministerial review into the recent bike ban on peak hour trains, here
are the relevant contact details and resource sites:

Bin the Bike Ban - http://modernthings.org/binthebikeban

Is it worth contacting them and giving our public side of the story since
the recent developments? (I would have thought they would have contacted
Brianna at least when having bv on air.)


 
Also I note that the bv website is failing in the amount of updates by one.
Ie - no updates :( 
They were promised the next day and I even personally called to enquire.
I asked if/when and was told today (last wed) and the update would be a
clear NEW post (not a quiet re-edit of a previous stance with no form of
disclosure on the edit).



Funnily if you google 'bicycle victoria' - 
http://www.google.com.au/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGIC,GGIC:20
07-02,GGIC:en&q=bicycle+victoria
it shows the following (interesting numbers huh).

Bicycle Victoria - 
A large, independent cycling organisation offering advocacy and insurance
benefits to its 20000 members.  


The truth IS out there

So who was listening after 7pm?

The show hosts didn't really ask any questions, neither did the BV talking
head answer any questions.

Will have audio hosted of tonights show on the BtBB site soon.
