Cumberland Council is seeking representations on proposals to change the route in Whitehaven. I do not know the area well enough to comment. If anyone is interested and wishes to support or make other representations please do either go ahead and comment (there is access on the website to do this) or get in touch with me (not my preferred option at the moment!).

 2 bike ride from Melmerby village bakery, 10am Wednesday, along Fellside lanes to Appleby. Trusting all the ice and snow will have melted! Approx 32 miles  https://www.komoot.com/tour/2015747977?ref=itd&share_token=ayajEmkqfWlBO17tUdRbE2bmk1px5Uq08yVv6CIE6jLL7Fsacl Text me Caroline 07825 038542

60 mile 3 bike ride, from Dalston at 09.30 ,  Wednesday 15th January. Taking a well 'travelled' route to Silloth for brunch/lunch at the Fairy Dust Emporium (23 mile) & then follow the Solway coast around Anthorn to Burgh by Sands & back to Dalston. Route  >> HERE << The weather forecast (at this time) is for sunny intervals, a moderate breeze, dry & max temp of 10°c. So, now that the permafrost has thawed, & balmy weather is forecast, what a great opportunity to get back out on the bike & join me on a club ride. It would be great to have company.

Yes, we've arrived in 2025 - not only an occasion to resolve to get out cycling more often but also 2025 is the year of our Triennial Cycling Event known as the Trivets! These events are organised all over the country by Cycling UK's member groups, aimed at people aged 50 or over, encouraging them to participate in a ride of significant length (100 miles or 100km). We have run a number of popular Trivets rides over the years and have already chosen the date - Wednesday 2nd July. Apart from the date (and even that could change) everything else is up for discussion - the base, the route, the catering, the leaders - so please come along to our meeting on Monday 6th January at 10.30 am to add your thoughts. The success of this event depends on the participation and support of our members. The more the merrier. We will be meeting in the upstairs cafe at Booths at 10.30 following a short (hopefully) Committee meeting starting at 10 am. Hope to see several of you next Monday. Wishi...
