something different
28/11/2008 by Martyn.
as the HCA ride out is cancelled does anyone fancy a different ride out? I got this through work. I went to a summer service at Cotswold and it was good food, not too serious and plenty of cyclists.
Hi Everyone
Firstly an apology if you’re receiving this twice - I blame my chaotic address book. You and your friends are warmly invited to the Tockwith Carol Service and general bunfight on Sunday 7th December.
The service this year is being held at the C of E Church, the Rev Jackie Betts the Methodist Minister to the Knaresborough Circuit, will again lead it, sadly for the last time. The service starts at 12.45 but both before (and after) the Tockwith Under 5s mums will be selling refreshments in the village hall .
I would be grateful if you would pass this message on to others on your address list who might be interested so that this, our 21st service, will enjoy a really good turnout.
many thanks
Keith Benton Tockwith co-ordinator

I have been in touch with the bike shop in taddy and there is a cafe ( tykes) on the main street next to Cyclesense which is very welcoming to cyclists , so Sunday should be OK if anyone is out?
