SUNDAY 16TH DECEMBER SPIN
The WLR/Lions Club Hamper Appeal Cycle is on this weekend. This has become an Annual event for the Club and is a very worthy cause. The format is the same as previous years with a gathering in The Square at 9.20 for a photo. The hat will be passed around for donations. This will be followed by a leisurely spin with the route decided on the morning. Any members wanting a shorter spin can join in and turn when they wish. Santa hats over helmets or Christmas outfits are encouraged!
