Downlanders at Henfold

The magnificent 7 settling down to their traditional Downlanders Breakfast at Henfold.
Some may be car assisted and why not but they all rode their bikes, some in tandem, others single file or even 2 abreast. Now there's a thought said the little Gosling!
As for me do not call me "Dook" that's a Nottingham expression! In any case I am not a duck but a "Goose" from Canada. In which case you should read the sign painted on the White Cliffs of Dover! Seven signets in all counted a large brood according to Angie who knows about these things?

Simon Legg


Simon Legg – CTC Volunteer of the Year for London Simon Legg was nominated for this award because of the work on the ‘Friday Night Rides’ from London to the South Coast which is now in its 5th year. The simple idea of a night ride from London to the south coast organised by Cheam and Morden CTC has become a phenomenon. The ride attracts its own diverse communities including many people completely new to cycling. The Friday Night Rise Club

Simon has given up an enormous amount of his time to make the rides a success for the hundreds of people who take part. The rides are promoted to a wide audience particularly in London and South East, with 13 rides in 2010 already arranged, one being a ride from York to Cleethorpes which will include watching the sunrise on the Humber Bridge.

CTC Annual Dinner Loughborough

From my point of view it was a great dinner and I was very impressed with all the prize winners achievements and especially so for the special awards given to groups that had started new innovations like BMX riding. Congratulations to CTC for presenting these awards.
As for the voting mine goes to that wonderful Sue Cherry, not only for organising the day, with help from others but for giving such unstinting service to CTC and it's members over the years. Long may she reign!
