  • Year Roundup

  • Facebook Group
  • Club Kit for Hire

Year Roundup

We made it! It's been a very long first term; the weather has been kind, and all trips have been snow-free for a change. This will be the last newsletter of 2013, so we'd like to take a moment to thank all the committee for the hard work they put into the club and to all our wonderful members for joining us on rides/socials in Bristol and at multiple exciting places all over the country. It's been a great first term to share with new faces and old, with some fantastic results to top things off. Rides will go ahead as normal this Wednesday (2pm @ Clifton Suspension Bridge). From Thursday until the end of the exam period, we expect people to organise rides for themselves. We recommend using the facebook group to find someone to ride with.
