So here I am, in the rain, at the Worcester Glow Ride.

• Role: setting
• In the article: Sitting in a Worcester museum café, the author is invited to the Glow Ride run by Bike Worcester after posting a photo of a distinctive pillar. He goes along in the rain without bike or lights, is made welcome, and unexpectedly meets Sarah Mitchell, CEO of Cycling UK. Glow Rides campaign for safer streets, especially for women riding after dark.
• Why it matters: A real event location that ties the newsletter’s Glow Ride drawing for Cycling UK to a ride he actually joined; the text gives no route or specific site in the city.
