Also on today's show Kieron tries to discover just how it is that we stay upright on our bikes as we pootle off down the road. Physicist, Dr Helen Czerski, provides the answers, describes the 'Einstein flip', and confirms the efficiency of the bicycle. Helen is a member of the NOISE network of scientists.
22 January 2007: - Looking forward to a great year for cycling
Could 2007 be the best year yet for cycling in London? In the studio with Guy Andrews, editor of Rouleur magazine and Barry Mason of Southwark Cyclists.

The first ten Bike Show listeners to donate to Resonance fm's survival fund will receive a free copy of the current edition of Rouleur magazine - newstand price £9 ($18). You can donate via Paypal or Credit Card and make sure to leave a note saying that you'd like a copy of Rouleur and give your postal address.
15 January 2007: - Women bike messengers and a ride through a very long tunnel
Women bike messengers might cut a better figure on the roads than their grungy, bearded and tattooed male counterparts, but are the girls better at their jobs than the boys? The answer is yes, if a handful of London's women bike messengers are to be believed. For details on the upcoming Roller Races, look here.
We also have Hugo Gladstone riding with the Stourbridge Bicycle Users Group on a 'suburban secrets' adventure that takes in the 2.3 km Netherton canal tunnel. Wooohh!! Echoooohh!!
And if you want to help the Bike Show and all Resonance fm's unique broadcasting stay on the air.... don't delay!
You can donate to our emergency fund quickly and painlessly here. Remember, all the programme-makers and engineers on Resonance are unpaid. We need to raise £60,000 now to pay for basic things like renting our studio (a damp and airless cave) and powering our antenna (a rusty coathanger tied to the top of a hospital). It's not rocket science but without donations from listeners, it will all come to an end very soon.
8 January 2007 - Doorstep Adventures with Patrick Field (part two)
In the second half of a ride with London cyclist (and self-described guru) Patrick Field, we cruise on the Woolwich Ferry, ride along the Thames Path through Greenwich before crossing in a tunnel under the Thames to the Isle of Dogs and from there onwards to old pumping station in Wapping converted into a arts space and cafe. Along the way we discuss revolutionary nature of the bicycle, the march of progress and the challenges of global and local environmental imperatives. Patrick suffers the first ever live puncture on the Bike Show.
18 December 2006: Doorstep adventures with Patrick Field (Part one)

We take in ancient trading routes, cross the River Lea and pass through land that will be home to the London Olympics in 2012. We discuss the ethos of cycling as travel and Patrick's hopes for returning to an age of pre-industrial idleness... (part two follows next week).
11 December 2006 - The Christmas edition
Back in the Resonance FM studio with Danish bike messenger elf Therese Bjorn to talk Christmas on bicycles. What to buy, what to do... and we take a look at the new London Scorcher bicycle from Velorution and Therese gives a thumbs up to Pac Designs messenger bags.
4 December 2006: - Sur le pavé in Brussels
In the Belgian capital of Brussels, road-testing Cyclocity, a new concept in bicycle hire - sturdy bikes you can pick up and leave in different places around the city that cost just one euro an hour. Jack Thurston and William Greswell are soon distracted by EU monumentalist architecture, horse meat steaks and a winter wonderland in the Grand Place.
27 November 2006: - Berlin special
A special edition from the German capital city and well-known haven for cyclists. Riding with Berlin blogger Maisie Hitchcock, we discuss the changing face of Berlin, the legacy of the Cold War and the achingly hip Berlin music scene, all the while finding out what a great place this is to ride a bike.
20 November 2006: - Experimental music and the bicycle
It's cold outside, so stay at home and turn your bicycle into a musical instrument! Featuring performances by Stephen Schweitzer's
Bikelophone, electro-acoustic composer David Berezan and the Tea and Toast Band.
And we set a new challenge for London's musical cyclists in 2007, the year that the Tour de France comes to our city... A performance of Godfried-Willem Raes's Second Symphony for 'Singing Bicycles'.
13 November 2006: - On a Bickerton in China, the Sideways Bike and cycling with disabilities
This week's studio guest is none other than David Thurston, my very own dad. A London cyclist since the 1970s when he lost his driving license, he explored China in the early 1980s on a Bickerton folder and is now discovering that with Parkinson's Disease, cycling is more fun than walking.
Also featuring an interview with Irish nutty professor Michael Killian, inventor of the revolutionary Sideways Bike with independent front and rear steering (see video below), news of Sheldon Brown's struggle with Multiple Sclerosis and an report by Alex Murray on a high end off-road wheelchair.
Problems over the last few weeks...
Just a quick post to say that contrary to rumours, the Bike Show is not going fortnightly. The observant among you will have noticed that recent service has been interrupted, and this due to:
1. A near-catastrophic flood at the Resonance fm studio which pulled
everthing off the air for a few days (hence no new show on 16 October)
2. Me being stuck on a train coming back from north Wales last week,
and thereby missing the show.
I hope you'll agree that these events are both very much in keeping
with the overall ambiance of the Bike Show, but I'll do my best to
ensure they're not repeated (as some of old shows have had to be to fill the gaps!)

6 November 2006: - Edinburgh by train, low carbon travel

2 October 2006 - Mississippi Tales (part one)
This week’s show is the story of a long, long ride from Fargo, North Dakota to New Orleans, Louisiana following the Mississippi River. Kieron Yates made this journey over the summer just passed, on a fixed wheel bike with just a saddlebag for all his worldly possessions. Safely back home, he joins me in in conversation and we play music and interviews from along the way. The journey took in frozen Mormons, naked yoga, Klan-survivors, sweat and heat, roadkill, cheap motels and plenty of down home blues. Second half next Monday the 9th October.
31 July 2006: - The Folding Miracle: -
Inside the Brompton factory. In this last show of the current season we're getting technical, with a visit to the Brompton factory. Bromptons are the best all round folding bicycles in the world and the invention of Andrew Ritchie, who started making them in his flat more than 25 years ago. They are still made in west London - in fact the only form of transportation still manufactured in the capital. Matt Tempest is awed by the brazing, bending and bashing that goes into a Brompton. Plus the demystification of wheelbuilding with Ian McCormick.
The Bike Show will be back with the falling of autumn leaves.
24 July 2006: - Remembering Major Taylor -
Tthe fastest man on the planet. In this week's show we remember 'Major' Marshall Taylor, a world champion cyclist from the 1890s and the first black American sports superstar.

10 July 2006: - The Hour Record with Michael Hutchinson
This week the Bike Show is in the presence of time trial greatness and (almost) sporting immortality. Michael Hutchinson has just written a book about his recent attempt to enter the pantheon of cycling legend by breaking the record for how far you can ride in an hour. The Hour: Sporting Immortality the Hard Way is both an informative history of the hour record itself and an entertaining, amusing and, at times, heartrending account of another chapter in the annals of epic British sporting failure.
3 July 2006: - Creativity, design and the bicycle
Riding with London-based desiger and artist Julia Lohmann. We begin at the Velorution bike shop in the West End, where Julia's giant backlit illustration of animal-bicycle metamophosis is on display. We ride down through the park via the Serpentine Gallery to her studio in Fulham and then south over Wandsworth Bridge and via Wandsworth Prison to Tooting to see one of her cowbenches - lifesize cow-shaped benches upholstered in a single cowhide - and to talk about her current project involving a sculpture of a tricycle in Shanghai. We talk about design, cycling, creativity and much more along the way.

This week's show has an extreme flavour. Kieron Yates visits Sheldon Brown for advice on fixed gear touring and Alex Murray tells us about his preparations for taking on this year's Etape Du Tour.

19 June 2006: - It's Bike Week!
This year's Bike Week coincides with the London Architecture Biennale, which has got a lot of cyclists thinking about architecture and a lot of architects thinking about cycling. At the launch of the Reinventing The Bike Shed exhibition, I speak with organisers Adam Thorpe of Bikeoff and Stephanie Laslett of Feilden Clegg Bradley and Associates about how the exhibition came about and what's on show.
The show also spotlights the Christiania Bike from Denmark, in conversation with its creators Lars Engstrom and Annie Lerche and Andrea Casalotti of Velorution, the bike shop on a mission to bring these fantastic multipurpose workhorse tricycles to the streets of London.
And a quick heads-up for the 'Midsummer Madness' summer solstice bike ride, on the night of Tuesday 20st June, through the night up to the top of Primrose Hill for the sunrise and down to the Globe Theatre for breakfast on Wednesday morning. All with the redoubtable Barry Mason of Southwark Cyclists.
12 June 2006: - A ride in the Royal Parks
London's eight Royal Parks stretch from Greenwich in the east to Richmond in the west and make London one of the greenest big cities in Europe. Between them, the parks' 5500 acres of land are the lungs of the capital. But they have remarkably few paths where cycling is allowed.
Mark Camley has been Chief Executive of the Royal Parks Agency for just over a year and is convinced more can be done to make the Royal Parks work for cyclists. I talk with Mark about the issues he's facing in making this happen, and then go for a ride around Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens with Ruth Holmes, a landscape management officer at the Royal Parks with special responsibility for cycling.
Mark welcomes all comments and suggestions from park users, and says he reads all his email personally:
