A new cycling festival is happening this year, Orbital Cycling Festival at the World famous Goodwood Motor Circuit in Sussex. With races for Men, Women and Kids as well as an exhibition area with plenty for the whole family to see and enjoy. Check out their website for more info . 

Cooper's history goes a long way at Goodwood. In the early 50s Cooper cars were a regular feature at the race meetings, winning races in F1, F2, F3, sports cars & saloon cars.

This weekend the Brooks Dashing Bike Show will be at the Salvagetti Bicycle Workshop in Denver, CO. 

For your chance to WIN your own Dashing Bike (A Cooper Revival) you can enter the photo contest on the Brooks website. Simply arrive to the event with yourself and your bike, dressed in your "Guv'nor Best" and add a few words about why you feel a dashing bike is essential to your "Guv'nor-ish" well-being. A jury composed of sponsors will decide the winners based on an old-fashioned vote when the event finishes in July.
