Notes from the Section Secretary
You will see from the programme that Stewart is organising a car/train assisted ride on the 10 June starting from Sandy. Please try to support this trip - it will be a chance to ride through some new areas. Many thanks to Judy for the sucessful Easter weekend away in Suffolk & Essex.
16-24 June is National Bike Week. Has anyone any suggestions about how we can support this?
Essex DA are running an 80 Km, on 6th May 2007, please see http://www.essexcycling.co.uk/ for further details.

If you can't make the start you can always join us in the pub at around 8.30-9.00pm. We'll spend about an hour in the pub before returning home. Rides are about 10 - 15 miles long and are tailored to suit all abilities, so nobody gets left behind. We welcome all cyclists of all ages. Don't forget to bring your lights.
