Dragonfly TV is looking for fit cyclists over 16yrs to take part in a novel experiment which attempts to convert human pedal power into electricity. The event will be filmed for an exciting new science documentary to be broadcast on BBC1 this autumn. The experiment will take place on the 5th and 6th of September, 2009 in Milton Ernest. Those involved will be asked to pedal in short bursts at a range of speeds to try and produce enough electricity to power a number of common household appliances.

Note that if you are involved in this then you will need to go to the house on both the Saturday and the Sunday. Also this event clashes with the Velodrome trip, however Leo is attempting to make things fit, and to assure that Club Members can do both.


If you’re interested and would like to find out more, please call Club Captain Leo Bonito ASAP on 07527 430 140.
