Stories from the Saddle: Jon Day’s Cyclogeography

The Stories from the Saddle series invites cyclists of all stripes to the museum to share their story of life on two wheels. These monthly talks are part of the Cycle Revolution programme.

Jon Day's book is informed by many years spent on the streets of London as a bicycle courier, and lifts the lid on this solitary but very busy life. Travelling the byways, short-cuts and edgelands of London, couriers are a declining, invisible workforce of the city. The parcels they deliver – either commonplace or illicit – keep the capital running.
