Sedgefield Cycle Club, is going from Strength to Strength.  This week 23 people attended, with further people turning up for Coffee afterwards.  Three groups operated, a developing cycle group, an advanced cycling group and a walking group.  Three new joiners attended too.
The container is being delivered for the bikes within the week and the bikes will follow shortly.  Further plans for childrens bikes and disability bikes are in the pipeline.

Hardwick Park Cycle Club rides into the new year

The people of Sedgefield are back on their bikes! After a period of walking due to the snow, it was good to be back on the bikes and they set about route finding for new routes.  The other half of the group went off on a more advanced ride towards Sedgefield.

All met up on completion in the tea rooms and swappped snow stories.  If any one needs a lift on a Thursday, Chris has two seats in the van and is very happy to pick people up.  If anyone is not fit enough to cycle please come anyway and have a walk, or meet us at the tea rooms.
