In episode 12, hosts Norman Blissett and Chris Foggin hear from Suzanne Forup, Head of Development for Cycling UK in Scotland and share our awe of Danny MacAskill's latest video. Suzanne is one of the top 100 women in cycling in the UK and an active campaigner to get more women on their bikes. She shares some of her life in cycling and how we can encourage more women to cycle. Last year, she rode the Herring Road, a 29 mile (47km) trail over the Lammermuir Hills in South East Scotland, from Dunbar to Lauder.
