Which is why you hired a Chief Executive who used to run a cycling charity, surely!

Which goes to show the unanticipated problem of electing trustees who know everything about nuclear reactors and nothing about sheds.
It's not my fault my degree in theoretical physics was missing the cycling module :(

The problem, then, is Richard's wording in his email. Recalling them because of a mistake that was pointed out by a board member is different from recalling them because a board member objected. Given the way it was described, I think our reaction was entirely understandable.
Still blatant bikeshedding, nevertheless.
Since we're on the topic, I regret to inform everyone that our nuclear reactor project is significantly delayed due to disagreement about the design and deployment strategy of the cooling rods, and there's a growing consensus to change direction completely and go with wind turbines instead. In good news, though, I understand that lots of progress is being made with the bike shed, although it's beyond my ken to understand all of the details there...
Thanks, Mike
