Saturday 12th December - Go Ride & Youth Ride

Awesome bike riders Betsy, Izzy, Ellen, Cayden, Sophia, Ben, Luke, Nico, Ethan, Albert, Hope, Sammy, Barney, (Zara & Franklin) enjoying our last Go Ride session of the year.  We finished with team games, always popular and great to see our riders young and old all riding bikes together - IT'S WHAT WE DO!

Afterwards we headed out on the Youth Ride, Claire and Michele took the shorter route, Damian, Malcolm and I rode the longer route.  We all headed out towards Penshurst.  Unfortunately some rather deep and badly placed potholes caused Ellen to puncture (front and rear) and left her bruised and battered, which meant we had to launch a rescue for the second week running.  Luckily a passing motorist gave Claire and Ellen a lift back to Hildenborough and a local resident offered to take care of the bikes until they could be collected later.  Nice to know that when you need a little help people will step forward.  We cut the rest of the ride short, it had been a fairly eventful morning!

Next Week (Saturday 19th December) Our Christmas Ride "Pimp my Bike" - meet at Stocks Green School 9.15am for a 9.30am departure. Return for coffee at Cafe 1809 around 11am.
