Carole’s June Blog II

Dear All,

I forgot to send a reminder that Pub night was last night but I did want to remind those who are interested in a nice long all day ride, that ours will be this Sunday 1 July. It will be to Shoreham via the Downs Link around 40 miles and led by Barbara Rossouw with back up from Chris Jeggo and Karen Smith. They will be leaving Woking Park meeting where we usually meet by the children’s playground at 8:15. If the weather stays hot, be sure to take lots of water and a swim suit if you want to take a dip before catching the train home. If you intend to go will you please give Barbara a call on her mobile 07742809031 or email her on Barbieross2@gmail.com, so she won’t leave without you. And don’t forget to take a spare inner tube, or two.

Our AGM was held on 18 June and the minutes can be read on our website under the Useful Information heading.

Cycle to work day is back. This year it will be Weds. 15 August. www.cycletoworkday.org copy the link, pledge miles and maybe win a prize!

We have also had an appeal to “Ride to the Moon-save a Dad ” to tackle prostate cancer. Read all about it and get involved!: http://cycletothemoon.tackleprostate.org/ I have attached the poster should you want to organize an event at work or pass on the message to other cyclists. You can even contribute miles by spinning in the gym.

We have also been contacted regarding an event taking place in September, starting in Tadworth which is a bit of a distance but if you fancy doing something for the Children’s Trust on 9 September, go to the following Web site. https://www.thechildrenstrust.org.uk/surrey-cycle-challenge

Meanwhile we are still waiting to see the date when the Muddy Lane public enquiry will resume..

Another note for your diary. Les Bowerman informs me that the Veteran-Cycle Club Ripley Section’s Jumble sale will be 15 September in the Ripley Village Hall.

Our next easy social ride will be 15 July starting near the children’s playground in Woking Park leaving at 2PM. Norman will be leading the ride so should you need to contact him on the day, his mobile number is: 07761221310. Don’t forget to bring a spare inner tube for your bike.

Pub night will be 31 July.

Take care when cycling in this heat and drink a sufficient amount of water.

Happy cycling,

Carole Frost
