6. Bike Maitenance Session - Saturday 30th May 
A message from Caroline Lansdown...Maddie and I are taking part in the London-Brighton Bike Ride this summer in aid of the British Heart Foundation, in order to raise funds in a different way we have organised with the help of Bob a Bike Maintenance session on the above date, the exact details need to be finalised but it will essentially be basic bike maintenance; puncture repairs, taking your wheels on/off etc.  The session will run in the morning followed by lunch (provided by us) and a bike ride in the afternoon, provided you can get your wheels back on!!
 The cost of the session will be £15, which will be donated to the British Heart Foundation.  Numbers are limited so places will be offered on a first come first served basis.  If we have enough interest it may be possible to organise another session at a later date.
 Please email cazzlansdown@hotmail.co.uk or Parrott112@btinternet.com to book your place.
