Kenilworth Cycleways: Support urgently needed

Hi all,

further to previous emails, the new Kenilworth Cycleways group needs some additional supporters to support a joint Sustrans/Kenilworth Cycleways stall at the Lions Show in Kenilworth (8th June: 12-5pm) and also to help support some rides we're organising.  (our first family ride took place on the kenilworth greenway on sunday, and was a great success with 18 riders and perfect weather!).

PLease let me know as soon as you can if you'd like to get involved in Kenilworth Cycleways group and/or help out at the stall on the 8th June and/or some of the following rides (details of the rides to follow, for now i'm just getting takers for the dates.

Tuesday 18th June - evening ride (6:30 - 8:30)
Sunday 23rd June (10:30 - 1:00pm)
Saturday 6th July (10:30 - 1:00pm)
Tuesday 16th July - evening ride (6:30 - 8:30)
Sunday 28th July (2:00 - 4:00pm) would be good to see if afternoon ride might be more popular?

Kind regards,
Paul

Mowing and weeding on Lias Line

Edward has organised mowing and some weed killing along the Lias Line around Long Itchington and from Birdingbury to Draycote. There will hopefully be some scrapping back of the over grown grass. Great improvement, now we just need to keep on top of it!
