Your 2017 achievements

Hello wonderful Windrushers!!!

It is that time of year again when you get the opportunity to tell us what you did in 2017 that made you proud.

I would absolutely love it if you could tell me what you did in 2017 which made you proud. This could be anything. (Windrush / sport related of course) It could be a mad cap icy iron distance race in the Arctic (see Mr Barclay) or it could be your first Parkrun finish. It could be one length of a moderately cold lido on Christmas morning…

Club Rides - Useful information

Howdy Club Members,

As ride captains we are trying to get more people riding their bikes, not just for races but also to enjoy riding and training together with this lovely club!
