I Bike MCR

This week the I Bike MCR CC rode up Holme Moss, it was a beautiful day and though the climbs were tough we were rewarded with beautiful views and ice lollies!

Critical Mass this month was amazing.. we wove in and out of the major roads around MCR including Kingsway and Princess Parkway and through some places we don't usually ride..

It was beautifully sunny and we had loads of new faces that grinned and chatted as we rolled

afterwards we all went and hung out the THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PARK, alexandra park...ace..thanks to everyone for coming and we hope to see you in July...

WOWZA it was a wondrous mega mass of cyclists all riding and chatting and singing and wheeling their way along the bike filled roads....glorious indeed!!

Well, we rocked up at the festival, bikes in tow, wheels and glamorous assistants, after only a few rehearsals with the newbie spokes- Kat, Jen and Claire. The music sound systems at the festival, unfortunately, had to be turned off due to a wedding in a nearby church, for 2 hours- which is when we made our mad ferret debut (with very quiet music)!

please can everyone fill this in.. it takes like a second and i met the
guy that started it yesterday and he was a well amazing guy..told me
stories of riding in races of 6000 people in france across the french alps
and how he's been racing for about 50 years....

he was knocked off his bike by a truck whilst the driver was texting and
was on a life support machine and 2 of his cycling friends were killed in
road accidents due to drivers texting whilst driving and he is desperate

Drink red bull, um, no its ranko.

Was a few weeks ago, but never the less, we had one new face on the ride but it was very windy so we did a short ride around the nearby parks and ended up at the rampant for some beers. At the beginning of the ride we were "targetted" by some red bull enthusiasts in a telling car. we all seemed a bit bemused with it all, but took a photo to mark the occaision of being targetted...
