Good afternoon everyone,

First of all, thank you very, very much for your support for this campaign. We – me, PDMTB, Friends of the Peak, the BMC, Ride Sheffield and many others have been working very, very hard over the past two years to get it to this stage.

It may come to nought. DCC may choose to ignore everything we’ve said – despite us being by far the most vocal, representative and interested user group. We can only wait and see.

I’ve logged on here to ask for one thing. Please, please respond to the consultation. We’ve only managed to get them to go to a second consultation thanks to your support; it won’t happen again.

I’ve responded officially as you’ve seen (it has been included in the responses, I checked), but your comments and thoughts and feedback all do make a difference.

Here’s my feedback to them and a link to their rather limiting consultation. PDMTB have also done some fantastic work on digging into the consultation and plan so their research is well worth a look. I’ve also seen a strong responses from Friends of the Peak along similar lines.

As a final word – thank you once again. Though we should never have had to fight this campaign something very good has come from it; a huge, like-minded community. It’s put us in a very strong position for anything we try to do in future. We’ve established ourselves as a very strong community now and that’s a real step forward.
