The Annual Bike Ride – Thanks
The sun was out again this year for the parish bike ride, what a welcome sight that would be now! All who ventured out had a lovely afternoon. The difference being starting and finishing at school represented the end of an era. Bill Hogg was our guest of honour, whose enthusiasm for the event along with hosting the finish for the last ten years, has been the fulcrum and oil on its chain. Thank you, Bill, and to all your family, helpers and Free Church, all your input has made the event an absolute pleasure.
As ever there were no prizes for speed, no mechanically perfect metal steads, just a pursuit for enjoyment and the wind through our hair. All came home safely, although perhaps a touch dehydrated on the keenies route as the sun split the trees.
Thanks to all the marshals, for Harrison super sweeping especially when not feeling on top form, registration folks, 1st aider Judith Mandale and all who helped and contributed to the food and drink. Special thanks to Raughton Head School for their continued support.
Well done to one and all. See you next year.
