In the News: 2016

We closed the year with a trio of fabulous ride leaders.  Teresa and Angela attended the Cycling UK ride leading workshop in Garston in September 2016 and found it very helpful in confirming their abilities and extending their knowledge of group ride leadership.


 Team Fabulous at the St Albans Charity Cycle Ride on 15th May:

Five ladies from the Five Miles to Fabulous group rode 20 miles in the St Albans Charity Cycle ride on Sunday 15 May. 

They had been practicing longer distances than five miles over the previous few weeks and were confident that they would finish. They stayed together during the ride and waited for each other at the tops of the hills. Some walked up the hills, and that was OK. The weather was lovely - bright, but not too hot, and no wind. The atmosphere was very friendly and supportive, and all want to do the ride again next year! 


Not only did they successfully complete the St Albans Charity Cycle Ride, their fabulous fundraising efforts earned them a silver cup!  The team collected their award at a presentation on Friday 8 July at Westminster Lodge.
We took part in  This Girl Can in Herts Week 2016.  The report on the week  can be found on the Sport in Herts website, along with a link to lots of pictures.  Click here to go there.
