Hi everyone! I’m Lucy. The main things you should know about me are that I’m Chris’s girlfriend, I’m a writer, and on April 22nd I’m taking part in the 38th Virgin Money London Marathon. The reason I’m writing this is to invite you all to Wendron Cricket Club this Sunday, April 15th, for my cake sale fundraiser. A semi-reliable source has told me that cyclists are fueled by cake so I’m hoping this might interest you all. All money […] Read More
After a half decent day it was disappointing to see the rain come in around 5. I was reminded of another pub ride to the Stag Hunt in the rain last year – that I completed on my lonesome and had to phone Richard to get any company at all. So big surprise to see a large gathering at HQ. Jim M, Chris, Richard, Neil, Trevor and around ten past six, Ian. Richard went the direct route to order the […] Read More
It’s a simple route to the Bluebell nursery café near Praze, but Ian was leading. And leading he was; setting a cracking pace for an OGIL ride.

Kath had already posted that she would not be out* so I was feeling pretty smug when, at 8.50 there were no other Wheelers at […] Read More
First pub ride of the year we headed to Mawnan Smith. 8 riders on 8 bikes. Liz, Amanda, Trevor, Robin, Richard 80, Ian, Neil and myself. As the pub was so far away the most direct route we decided was the way to go. Left turn out of HQ down to Maenporth, up the other side then to our amazement we were there. Beer was drunk, rubbish was talked and micky was taken.
