Adam Powe's Ameia rose ride

Hi Rob Hargreaves VCC here

Did you know about fellow member Adam Powe's Amelia rose ride,

it is to raise money for the charity that looks after parents with sick children,

Adam and his fiance Lisa were offered use of the accommodation when Amelia was born but unfortunately had to have major surgery.

There is a full report about the ride and the charity in the Whitehaven news with our photo's.

About nine of us are endeavoring to complete a Two Hundred mile bike ride around the old Cumberland boundary to raise money for the sick children's trust.

If any one, cyclist or not would like to donate they can visit justgiving.com/AdamPowe and donate or simply text FBBC69 £5 to 70070 please spread the word. Cheers.

26-04-2012 Lakeland Sprinters

Hi everyone, sorry that we had to cancel the first Lakeland Sprinters session at Rowrah (on 25th April) - the gusty, very strong winds, coupled with rain and a very wet track, plus a temperature of only 6 degrees meant that really there was no option. We are as disappointed as you all are. So to help speed things up next week, here are a couple of things for you - firstly, the 2012 membership form.

Please fill one form in for each child that you have coming, and bring the completed forms to Rowrah next week.

Could you please pay particular attention to things like email addresses and contact numbers - our email address list, which we use to try and contact you so you know what is happening, was bang up to date at the end of the last season. When we tried to send the newsletter and reminders out this week, Penny got many failure messages - which usually means people have changed email address and unfortunately we don't know about it.

Finally, here is the Newsletter for those who didn't get an email!

Hope to see you all next Wednesday - weather permitting.

Tim, Penny, Don and Wendy - the Coaching Team"
