Four minute video of the first ever Press Camp, Sun Valley, Idaho.

This is HOME, a 1.5 hour movie about Planet Earth. It's eye-candy, but it's also eye-opening, even though you already know all the Al Gore/climate change stats.

HOME is bad for cars, Las Vegas, Dubai, Israel, cows. Good for greenies and fans of HD gyroscope cameras. Forget about the ragtrade sponsor, that's how the movie is going to go viral: it's free.

Yann Arthus-Bertrand, GoodPlanet Fundation President and photographer of 'Earth From the Air', produced the movie and he says:

"We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years to change the way we live, avert the depletion of natural resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth's climate.

"The stakes are high for us and our children. Everyone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being.

"For this purpose, HOME needs to be free. A patron, the PPR Group, made this possible. EuropaCorp, the distributor, also pledged not to make any profit because HOME is a non-profit film."

After CTC members wrote to complain, the UK's Department for Transport has pulled a online game encouraging online users to hit unhelmeted kids! Here's the game...I think I might have been playing it wrong.

Gary Fisher audio recorded in Otley Town Hall, 14th March 2009. Gary was in Yorkshire for a Chevin Cycles organised screening of MTB history doc 'Klunkerz'.

This is the Bike to Work podcast hosted by Quickrelease.tv. Here's an audio interview with cycling legend Gary Fisher, one of the founding fathers of mountain biking. Gary was in the UK to lead some rides at Chevin Cycles of Otley. He rode his trademark 29er, but earlier that morning I grabbed Gary at breakfast and dragged him into a hotel ballroom to record this audio. We didn't talk about wheel sizes, we talked about transport bikes.

At an All Party Parliamentary Cycling Group reception in the House of Commons, MPs, peers and bike big-wigs heard from British Cycling's performance director Dave Brailsford and BMX racer Shanaze Reade. Brailsford revealed that freestyle BMX is likely to be introduced at the London Olympics; talked about an aborted scheme to make Ed Clancy faster; and revealed the Beijing Olympics skinsuits have all been shredded for protection from industrial espionage. This is one of two audio podcasts from the reception. The other features Kulveer Ranger, Boris Johnson's transport chief, and David Brown, managing director for Surface Transport at Transport for London. Subscribe to the podcast for free in iTunes.

In early December, Cyclefit of London ran the first European bicycle fitting course.

Held in conjunction with SICI (Serotta International Cycling Institute), the course was run by Cyclefit directors Julian Wall and Philip Cavell. They were assisted by Dr David Hulse (knee specialist and sports physician to the Tour of Britain) and US-based Paraic McGlynn, SICI's Director of Applied Cycling Science.

Six students - including trainer to the pros, Adrian Timmis - attended the three-day course.

This audio programme interviews the course leaders and two of the students. Listen out for lots of advice on why a professional bike fit is such an investment: an investment that brings performance and comfort benefits.

There are also little snippets of info that can squeeze out a smidgen of extra performance. For instance, if you have too much cable showing on your bike, you could be losing three watts of power.

And talking about power measurement, bike fitting is now a science, it doesn't have to be subjective or down to using 'the eye'. Better bike fits can be measured by increases in power output.
