I really appreciate the effort you have put in to this. It is looking
really good. (and I mean it).
It will now get picked to pieces by all to make it even better.

Now with my constructive criticism hat on (and fully anticipating being
told I am talking rubbish)..

The NCN style signs look good.
Toms left turn pic is ideal.

page 2:
Should the black text be a bit higher? It seems to be rather low. If
it was formatted to match the edge of the orange, then it could move up
a bit and allow the helmet bit to be part of a slightly expanded bit
about clothing (ie No special clothing is needed for cycling but you
should ensure any clothes worn are not able to get caught in the wheels
or chain. Some children ...

Also the sentence about 'cycle training ensures children can behave
safely on a road' or some such appears to have been lost.

page 3.
The regular font is potentially hard to read. Could the NCN sign match
the opposing one for size?
Should there be a link to the (a) web site for the NSCT syllabus etc.?

page 4:
should the bottom photo bleed to the edge of the section?

general:

Photo selection. I'd imagine people might want to change out the
pictures at the bottom of pages 2 and 4. The other 3 are about as good
as one can get for the other sections. (I like both pictures but could
imagine pictures more appropriate for the target community in those
spaces. I'd be tempted to put the two girls up for the maintenance one
as it also says the techy stuff is something girls can do. ).
For example, if it was in Dundee I'd want some that were more Scottish
in architecture (and probably h***-free too to reflect prevailing
culture)

credits:
Should each photo be credited on the side in tiny text as per my
earlier version? I presume final credits will go in the small print at
the bottom of p4 or at the bottom in the middle, leaving the bottom of
p4 for local information. There should also be a license statement
saying that it can be freely reproduced unmodified (I don't want my
albeit small part to be used to promote an 'always wear a lid'
campaign).
