There is also a cycle jumble sale , so it might be worth digging out some of that stuff you always thought about selling.

Keep your diary free for a cracking day of bike activity.

Google groups RIP

It appears our experiment using Google groups to communicate news items to the membership has failed. At the committee meeting this evening quite a few said they weren't receiving the Google group messages. therefore we have decided to disband the group and go back to using the e-mail membership list.

I'll post news update notices on the forum as well.

If you get this as part of the Google group it will be the last one from Ythan.
