Pedal Pusher: 5 star Remote Goat Review

"Long with the utmost eagerness"

"As an ordinary cyclist who uses her bike most days to get about town and sometimes takes it on holiday, and who has had some of her most serene or thought-provoking moments while in the saddle, I am predisposed to see the poetry of self-propulsion.
But I've never paid more than scant attention to the Tour de France, so I've never really appreciated the drama of cycling as a sport, in which you challenge not only yourself but others as well. In 'Pedal Pusher' both the poetry and the drama are brought brilliantly to life in a piece of site-specific, promenade, physical theatre that is captivating enough for you to be gripped even if you've not been on a bike since the trike rusted up in the back garden when you were six."
