Weekly Roundup
AGM - PLEASE REGISTER!
The club AGM will be held at Bicicletta on Wednesday 1st March - lining up nicely with the monthly social evening - Hazel has sent information about this in the last couple of days. In order for us to book the right amount of food we need members to register to attend.
We need you to register by 18:00 Sunday evening, so please do so!
GETTING BACK IN THE SADDLE
Maybe you've been out of the saddle for a while and feel that, at the moment, a two hour ride is out of your reach, maybe you don't have time to ride for two hours. To give you an opportunity to ride with the club we are holding shorter rides, specifically for those returning to (or new to) group riding once a fortnight. We hope that as the weather improves heading into spring this gives you more opportunities to get out with the group.
The next of these rides will this Sunday at 9:30am, following this route: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/146953133
It will be around one hour ride, depending on the group, and will be no drop, meeting in the Market Square at 9:30 on Sunday - that should mean you can join the rest of the group at Bicicletta after the ride!
Special thanks to Robin for leading the ride this week!
