MEETING REMINDER: Thursday 25th October – How do we get bums on saddles?

After the normal ‘business’ meeting to catch up on what has been happening, we want to discuss how we, as a group and as individuals, get others cycling. We will start with Veronica from the ‘Breeze’ initiative who is looking to increase the participation of women in cycling – may with some help from our group. We want to consider what are the barriers to getting our own friends and family out on a bike – and what practical things we can do to help. What advice can we offer on the website, on leaflets? What resources are available? Should we run a programme of ‘beginners’ rides?  Lots of questions – come along and help provide the answers.

All welcome.

Meet: 8pm Carey Hall, Trinity Church, 15 Nether Street, North Finchley N12 7NN

There will be a tea stop in the afternoon – possibly at Shenley Orchard as it is Apple Day.
