There’s never been a better time to read Winged Words since most of us are currently required to stay at home.
Make sure you don’t miss out on your magazine by taking out a subscription. Registered readership will set you back a mere £12.00 for the next 6 issues. Email Richard at sway.bush@gmail.com with your contact details and he will arrange the rest. Or please buy a single copy to support the club.
N.B. We have spare advertising space at present that we need to fill. Next time you’re in your group’s regular café or pub, please sound out the proprietor and let Richard know so he can progress the referral.
In line with advice from Cycling UK and Audax UK, all group rides and activities are suspended until further advice from the Government regarding social distancing and isolation instructions. N.B solo cycling is permitted and indeed recommended as a way of maintaining general fitness and wellbeing.

Another item whilst going over past cycling events. The former Sunday AM section celebrated their birthdays by yearly themes, which were guided by Mrs Wander-a-Long. Many people came along on the rides and met the Old Lady (Tour Guide). Do past attendees have pictures please?
Dibden Treacle Mines was one.

Request from Bob T to anyone who attended the early years of the Winter Weekends, namely 1981 to check their old hostel cards for that year. Trying to confirm the weekend location for that year.
Thanks

‘Saturdays’ next ride tomorrow (February 15th) starting at Headcorn Green has been cancelled. Sorry folks, blame Storm Dennis…hoping for better luck with the weather on the next ride March 7th starting at Orpington War Memorial.
