On Sunday, 11 March, the Broadway Cinema in Nottingham will be showing Remembering Raleigh.

From their site:

A nostalgic look back at one of Nottingham’s great industries. A rare selection of archive film curated by the Media Archive for Central England puts the spotlight on the city’s famous cycle firm. From the war years when bicycles made way for armaments to the opening of No.3 Factory in 1957 by General Montgomery and on to the 1970s when the launch of the Raleigh Chopper ushered in a whole new youth cycle cult. A full programme of archive films guaranteed to appeal to anyone who’s ever pedalled a Raleigh.

This is part of their BIKE festival, which also includes showings of Belleville Rendez-vous, Bicycle Dreams (with an introduction and Q&A with Chris Hopkinson) and a preview screening of The Kid With A Bike.

If you live in the Nottingham area, you can take part in the 11th Annual Nottingham to Skegness Charity Ride.

82 miles on Saturday, 14 July. As they say:

Hopefully we will be riding the 82 miles in glorious sunshine through Nottinghamshire and the Lincolnshire Wolds with a steady tailwind gently pushing us all the way there.

So if you want a lovely countryside ride that ends at the North Sea, you can register now.
