I do not think I know enough about this sort of idea, to make a valuable addition to a poll. This lorry has a crush on you sounds good tho'.

Shouldn't it be "may" have a crush on you? (i.e. depending on how you approach it)

Hello back again!
The Lorry has a crush on you -I like that one-memorable. +1+1+1!!!!
Reporting back more bits:
Filmmakers - gone quiet - no definite replies -any takers on here? I will pursue it a bit further when I get back into town as away for a few days from tommorow.
I still need to emphasise the importance of a deadline...you know strike while the iron's hot with the reportage...
New information:
I was at a meeting with nothing to do with bikes (so I thought) last night but got two contacts who I will email after posting this - one is linked with soundsystems and powering generators and anything electrical through pedals and biking, another is working on this HGV issue with LCC as one of their mates died in Chancery Lane as they were crushed to death- he runs a workshop for schoolkids to fix bikes and take them away for free. Hoping to get them on board too as well as linking with LCC. Also makes me think we should link with the Critical Mass groups in the major cities that run them...possiblity for awareness raising through an actual riding session ie not a traffic blocking protest as critical mass (in London) is when I've been on them but rather to get a load of people out onto the roads at the same time across different cities in the country and it's also a way to speak to other cyclists and flyer people with a greater impact alongside the one on one flyering and talking.
Once we know what is solidly going on I'll mailshot/email out to everyone I know to get numbers/people to help.
Ok - also asking again - would be useful to all meet up- are you guys interested in this? think it would be useful? Suppose also might be good to do this when we have a filmcrew all sorted so that only need to travel once?
Let me know and I'll check in with you guys later!

Jake - go on...sweet talk them.....
If we can push this nationally (there's a big possibility for this)to connect with national press/media they may well be interested for publicity/CV enhancement - plus it can be a way to diversify their portfolios???!! Probably only a day really - editing will be another couple of days worth of work I suppose - people have mentioned a Sunday in relation to road closures but I suppose these are details to be finalised.
Let me know how you get on!
the other questions depends on meetup- are there preferences for where they would go ie are they London centric(you're South London right?) or can they travel and do this for free. If it's London only I suppose that limits the location as to when and where we ALL meet up if folks are still wanting to do that.

nope not yet - I suppose it's worth pushing that again as some people on here had contacts -not sure what's happening with that end.....
what's going with that one guys? I suppose if it hasn't moved forward it might be worth PM people who have offered help and following certain things up so we have definite answers ie HGV community - have people asked HGV guys to be involved? Who has a lorry et etc
Any volunteers to do this? Speicher are you interested or have the time to follow these links up?

I hope I'm not telling Grandma to suck eggs, but could some of the ideas for slogans be shown to newbie riders ? (for a sanity check).
Is anyone involved in a BUG or something similar ?
There is a risk that although the message is obvious to us, it won't be obvious to a beginner.

Hi all,
I did volunteer a little while ago to contact the LCC regarding our campaign. It might be helpful before I do so if we can define what we would like them (and other campaigning groups) to do.
A few ideas might be publicity for the video, contacts to help spread the word, bodies to help distribute flyers, etc.
Any other ideas?

That would be brilliant once the materials are ready. They will be able to forward the video link to a lot of people, and help with distribution of cards/posters.
It doesn't make sense to bring them in at this stage - we already have more than enough opinions about how to go about this. :-) The priority now is to get a small group of people together who have the necessary skills and make this happen.
