#BikeWeekUK is a perfect time to launch the superb new trails map we have developed with the help and talent of illustrator Derek Bainton derekbainton.com/ The map shows the brilliant local trails that we use for our #inclusive #social rides as well as our social stops.

We had a brilliant afternoon at the Spectrum Hub Olympics at Rhydycar this afternoon. Well done to Lynne and the team for a brilliantly organised event. Great fun was had by all of the trike riders, smiles all around.

It was amazing of @DesignSecultd to come over to look at our storage container following the recent break in. Thanks Chris for the great advice, I’m already working on potential funding through the police commissioner. Thanks for your continued help and support. 🙏

Not a good dah for us. Some lowlife scumbag tried to break into our container and steal the community bikes we have worked so hard to get. To us they are priceless but not worth much as stolen bikes. Any advice on the best security for a storage container? 🤬The lock saved us

This is what all the effort is for. What an amazing video to put together. Brilliant to see what can be done with the right equipment, support and encouragement.
