The London to Jerusalem Bike Ride 2004

For decades, thousands of people have been killed and injured in a cycle of violence in the Middle East. We believe that just as one act of violence leads to another act of violence, so can one act of peace lead to another act of peace.

In August 2004, cyclists from all over Europe will ride for 6 weeks from London to Jerusalem on a mission to support peace and reconciliation in Israel/Palestine.
As they cycle across Europe they will raise awareness and hold events to highlight the occupation and its effects on Israelis and Palestinians.

END THE CYCLE OF VIOLENCE - SUPPORT THE CYCLE FOR PEACE

Hello hello,

The next of our EASY TIGER club nights is on Friday 25th June. In your Earth years, that's next week.

Same venue as always:

Downstairs at The Albany Pub,
240, Great Portland Street.
W1
(Opposite Great Portland Street Tube)

Doors open at 8pm. The fun goes on til 2am.

Last month, we had the excitements of the live all action DJ-off, new disco lights and new Tiger themed decorations. You could have been forgiven for thinking that was the ultimate excitement physically possible.

Think again. This month's EASY TIGER is going to take the word excitement, fight it, marry it's mother and then teach it to speak a new language. That language is called 'Even more excitement' - it's not a particularly creative name but sometimes it pays to be self-explanatory.

Come down and dance like a Tiger. We will provide the finest in hip pop, hop rock, raptastic bootlegs and things that make you wanna get your ass on the floor in a generally bootylicious way.

Love to see you there,

Danny x
