Trail Maintenance Session: 16th March

Hi there,

As mentioned previously, we’re planning the next trail maintenance session this Saturday (16th March).    If you are able to help out then please post up here or drop me an email (this will be useful to estimate the number of tools we need to borrow from the park rangers).   Here’s the details:

Tools:  Bring what you have, eg. spades, forks, pruning saws/loppers, forks, mattocks

Tuesday Night’s Ride: A Report

Cracking show last night!  About 17 folks riding, split over 2 rides; one faster, one more chilled.  3 new faces joined us too!  Dry trails meant no need for the bike wash and copious amounts of tea and banter (and biscuits!)  enjoyed back in the hall afterwards with both groups mingling for a chat.  Magic.

If you weren’t able to join us last night then maybe next time??
