• we' re running the sponsored bike ride again this year - again to raise funds for jimmys nightshelter.
    date is 17th september (saturday) starting anythime after 8am and finishing at 5pm. cakes afterwards in the cafe.....
    luca, joe, types (i think) and his partner kindly turned up last year.
    we raised nearly £2k which isn't bad.
    the circuit is the same as last year but we've included a smaller inner lap for the more "leisurely" rider.
    if you want more detail, forms etc them pm me or email sawstoncycleride@gmail.com

    thank you

    any reason why we couldn't do it another day and still raise the moolah? it's a lovely circuit and if it was anything like last year it'll be a great day for a bike ride. lets do 100 miles this time!

    types - didn't get to meet you last year - was knackered trying to catch Luca. 4 laps and i was done and dusted
    i can't see any reason why you couldn't do it on another day - rev bruce would be pleased.
    please pass this info on to anyone who would like to do the ride - even the casual
    rider

  • A rare weekend without a wedding!

    Could do both rides too.

  • would it help if the ride was put back to the 24th september?
    just gauging reaction as quite a few people who did it last year can't do it this year.....

    as rev bruce says "it's not all about the money - it would be nice be a fun day meeting people too"

  • that would be awesome!

  • Can do that too!

  • looks like the 24th is a goer......if thats ok with you guys (and any gals that might turn up)
    sponsor forms from the gmail account above

    :o)

  • anyone up for this, i know tom and his other half are.....just trying to gauge interest.
    forms if you need them - please ask

    than k you

  • i think two of my friends are going to do this. i will PM you their email addresses!

  • Need to put some training rides in, haven't done over 5 miles in about 3 months!
