We haven't tweeted for a while! We are still a very active Oxford cycling club, but we're using Strava and Facebook instead of Twitter.

40th anniversary of the march to Greenham Common: we’ll be riding the route that the women marched, 2-3rd Sept.
Long-story-short: it was the biggest female-led activist movement since women’s suffrage within living memory (yet most <40 haven’t heard about it!) Ride with CRC!!
