Post subject:  Long time no see

Hi
Been a while since i have been out but been really busy with new job and the club "Cycle Harlow". We are in the proccess of starting a hub offering repairs, bike spares, new and recycled bikes and cycle mechanic training. The school i work at has gained city and guilds accreditation for cycle mechanics so i will be teaching that in the new term after easter. We have been building a skills area for the kids so we can teach mountain bike techniques and will hopefully be taking them to a few trail centres in the summer. The club will benefit also in that we are running a Saturday morning kids mountain bike session each week at the school.

Get her to contact Essex Outdoors at Danbury, they run kids mountain bike sessions. I was down there in the half term and they have some good facilities.
