Happy New Year!!!

By

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.

Wishing you all a great year ahead.

Withdrawal of Sunday's 2 bike ride/Nigel

By
Some of you will have heard that Nigel came off his bike on ice on Wednesday. We were lucky in so many ways; Adella was promptly on the phone to call an ambulance, some people passing in cars provided sit mats and blankets and went to fetch us hot water bottles, another man provided hot sugared tea, the police were very helpful (including putting 2 bikes in the van to get them back to our vehicle) and the ambulance arrived after just over an hour. Nigel was taken to Lancaster hospital and given a bed on a ward by 7.30 p.m. Tomorrow afternoon he's due to be operated on by Mr/Dr Patel who we're told is an expert in management of people who have fractures after hip replacements - it's called a periprosthetic fracture apparently. Nigel's in good spirits and very appreciative of messages that have been sent to him. We're just taking it one day at a time, but as I intend to be visiting Sunday - I don't expect he will be discharged that soon but who knows? - I don'...
