It’s dig day this saturday and there’s plenty to do…
Come along and lend a hand, meet some more members and eat some doughnuts.
10:00 – 16:00 (ish) @ the Allotment

Charles Mountford has been riding a Transition Blindside over the past few months thanks to Keith from Max Bikes PR. Here’s his review after plenty of fun down the allotment (both), and some epic riding at the Megavalanche and Avalanche Enduro… (click on the image to go to the full review).

We really need to raise some money to buy some more freelap watches for use at TickerTape races…
So, we’re asking our TickerTape loving members to get creative and think up ways to (legitimately) raise some doh.
What about…
A sponsored ride.
A week of doing chores around the house.
1000 press ups in an hour.
Bunny-hop your gran.

Thanks to Andrew, Simon, Jen, Ian, Sam, Maria, Neil, Josh, Jamie, Mark and Juliet. We rolled just under 3000m of Shimano tape in two and a half hours. We also ate perfectly* cooked sausages and listened to great* music whilst sprawled out on my driveway like some sort of white trash self help group for [...]

Hello
We’re holding a night of tape rolling, food and ….well, more tape rolling, on Monday (that’s tomorrow).
We’ve used up all 3000m of shimano tape now and despite a pretty fantastic effort at the last committee meeting we just can’t get to the end of the massive bundle.
So, PLEASE come along and help out – I [...]
