This section gives you a snapshot of what's currently going on in the heads of all those who sail on the good ship PKD.
Intended to stir the soul and encourage further investigation it's always worth coming back to see what's flicking our switches.
Something about the cover story images in today’s Guardian looked vaguely familiar…it’s 1997 all over again - cross processed, colour saturated images, the dying days of the britpop era and our small part in this musical footnote.

Well, i finally completed the monster LEL 1400km ride in a less than impressive 118 hours. All went well for the fist 500km or so, but a combination of hills, rain, cold and fatigue took its toll. Got to Edinburgh in 44 hours but the return leg was a battle of epic proportions, only finishing with 20 minutes to spare. You can follow the full horror as it unfolded, click on the picture below
After six months of hard training i guess i’m about as ready as i’ll ever be. I still can’t answer why i’m doing this but i feel excited about the challenge ahead. I can’t ride a bike like Wiggo but like him i will be tweeting over the course of my adventure so if any of you are in the least bit interested you can follow my progress via my twitter page; http://twitter.com/petekelsey
If you love cycling as we do, the chance to design our own team kit is too much of an opportunity not to be missed. We’re hoping to put these into production in time for Pete’s attempt on the LEL 1400 in late July. London to Edinburgh and back, non-stop, in under the (what seems unlikely) time of 80 hours. Ouch!

I recently read a piece about the artist Bob and Roberta Smith which, by the wonders of google, led me to the Polite site. If i ever sent greetings cards this is what i would want to say. Genius.
BBC iPlayer now available on a toaster, every home should have one.
