Cheap bike wanted
25/01/2012 by Doug.
One of my mates (who has injured himself whilst running, which is apparently his favourite pastime) wants to do a bit of cycling and requires a second hand bike which will, in his words “do the basics”. He is a beginner and wants to pay about £150. I know it is a bit of a tall order, but can anyone assist?

NEW MEMBERS
20/01/2012 by phil rounding.
We very recently had 2 new members join the Thorper team, so its a warm welcome to Malcolm Lock and Steve Vaughan. Malcolm is a regular on the Saturday run to the windmills cafe and Steve is now regaining fitness following a nasty accident last May. He is also taking part in the Turbo training sessions and hopes to gain enough fitness for the clubruns. Steve was also a pretty quick tester in the early 1990s. Welcome guys .

sunday report
15/01/2012 by phil johnson.
Today at the meet were … wait for it…. Jonny Dyson and Ben, like 2 long lost sons come home at last, Paul B, Spindler John, Geoff[second week running], Mikey Kamis, and me. It was noted Martyn and Lewis had been spotted going off in the direction of Holmfirth doing there own thing , but no points for you 2 !. Anyhow with the temperature minus whatever we decided to keep to the main and gritted roads as much as possible, leaving the start for the ritz for our meet with Geoff. Got to say we were missing one thorper who rang in saying it was to cold and would be going on the rollers in the garage, now as he is a mate i shall not name names but lets just say he doesn”t sweat much for a fat lad! And so we headed onwards for Bradford, taking a slightly different route dropping down to Nabwood via Heaton, once in Keighley we stopped briefly at Rossis to see if anyone else was out. Our passage then was onwards for Silsden up the hill for Addingham and Bolton Bridge, but just before we got to the cafe, as you go down the sharp decline Ben did his best Frans Klammer impression for us all to see as he hit the ice, two feet on the road like a true down hiller!, shaming us all as we dismounted and walked, lol. For the record, beans on toast with cheese and two eggs with the best chocolate drink ever [thanks Ben]. We headed for home deciding to reverse the route from which we took knowing it was safe and sound. Well done to those with heavy legs for keeping those legs turning today. See you all at the grange next Sunday, fry up
