Cycling UK members @cyclinguk.bsky.social will have got their mag today! Great to see @scarlettmcnally.bsky.social Prof Scarlett McNally, the cycling surgeon from Eastbourne is featured on page 4! She refers to the Bristol Declaration on healthy transport. See it at www.fph.org.uk/news/bristol...
This is a magazine cutting from Page 4 of the latest Oct/Nov 2026 Cycle magazine. There is a photo of Scarlett with her bike ouside an Out Patients Department. The article is in the "On my bike" series and has questions and answers about her cycling preferences.
