[VC Walcot] Club Run Hijack and Bike Stuff for Sale

[Laurie Chalk]

Hi Low,

No worries, just trying to find some riding partners for once. Getting a bit
lonely this year ;0)

Which 12hr TT did you do? Not the RTTC one as I couldn't see you on the
results sheet. I see Jeff Jones did 305 miles as well in a 12hr. Was that
with you?

Hoping the weather holds for Sunday. If it's rubbish then we'll be staying
at home. Not much fun down the caravan when it's raining with 2 boys
desperate for action!

Think we need to gather the troops for a club meeting soon. Lots to discuss
I think regarding membership levels and funding.

Have chased Shutt for the jerseys. Slight chance of getting them this week,
if not then next. I will deliver yours to you when I get them.

Laurie.
