North Birmingham - June Newsletter
June has arrived and brings the Summer Solstice on the 21st.
A BIG thank you to our club members who accompanied and presented our wreath at the “Service
of Remembrance” at Meriden on Sunday 21st
The Club BBQ
Our Club BBQ this year is July 2nd, at the “Colvile Arms” Lullington. 12:30 for 1:00
Please Register with Dave Frost to secure your spot.
One again this event is subsidised and you don't necessarily have to cycle there.
Cycle Maintenance Evening from John Bedford
I have been asked to put on a Maintenance Evening one a Tuesday evening (8.00 to 10.00 pm) in June or July. I am trying to determine who might be interested (First come-first served)
The group size is a maximum of 8. You will bring your own bike along to practice any particular job you want (except bleeding hydraulic brakes). There is not a set syllabus. You will bring your own tools where possible, but I will also have some to borrow or for sale. I will also have a selection of components for sale.
At this stage I am unable to fix a date. The information I require is:
a) obviously your name/email address
b) Any Tuesday evening in June/July you are not available.
c) Your areas of interest i.e. mending a puncture, putting on a new cable etc.
Ring me after 1st June on 0121 353 5136 if you want to discuss further.
