Pleased to announce we have now got two companies to sponsor the bike ride. Veolia Environmental Services and also A. Hughes & Son. My wife and I went up to Glasgow on Friday and drove back along the proposed cycle route. There are one or two changes to be made to the route for safety reasons and we believe that Thursday the 4th day of the ride will be the most gruelling. Although there are no places available on the bike ride anyone wishing to join us for a short ride can join us at different points of the ride, ie Kendal to Lancaster, Standish to Wigan. The full ride details will be published on our web site www.wiganpeddlers.co.uk and if you wish to join us you can e-mail me on wiganpeddlers@hotmail.co.uk or on the day you can ring me 07857 482 330 to see where we are up to and you will be most welcome to join us.

This bike ride will take place on Sunday 24th October 2010. Originally planned to finish at Penmaenmawr and was altered to finish at Llandudno Pier. The reason being that from Llandudno the ride would involve riding on the main Streets through Llandudno and as children are welcome (accompanied by a adult) it was considered unsafe. The ride is almost completely along a off road cycle path apart from a couple of small quiet streets and a shared foot path towards Llandudno. Anyone wishing to take part in the ride can submit his/her details via www.wiganpeddlers.co.uk were more information about the ride can be found. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A BIKE RIDE NOT A RACE.

The fun day held at St. Thomas's on Bank Holiday Monday raised £408.75p in aid of The Wheelchair Fund. Thanks to everyone for there help and support.
