Sou'Wester

 Seems not everyone can see the attachment at the bottom left of the email

An alternative in on the website under 'Information Hub' Newsletters.

Sou'Wester March/April 2021

 Graham,
We applaud your devotion in braving the cold and public transport to search out copies of the latest Sou'Wester Newsletter for our Members, deprived of opportunity to ride and meet together.

For those unable to take possession of a treasured paper copy of the Sou'Wester, it is available as an ethereal version. I shall try to attach a link to it, with no guarantees of success. Sou'Wester March/April 2021. Let's see if this works.

Works for me, but I have put up a link to all the Sou'Westers available under the Information Hub on the website.

You can find online copies of the Sou'Wester here

Souwester March/April 2021

 As Ed is not fully mobile, I've collected a dozen copies of the latest newletter from Colin -  home and back in an hour and a half using the (almost empty) buses

If you'd like your copy and have a cunning plan, please contact me.

A cold windy walk

 

Cycled the last 2 days as the weather for Sunday was forecast as severely cold and snow. A longish walk was planned instead, fine for the first half mile then it got muddier and muddier.
 



So, a change of direction was instigated and I headed homeward to warm up with a Whisky or 3.


 
Not walking friendly at present.

Tony..

Sunday December 27 2020 - Another Ride That Never Was

Firstly an apology to anyone who felt formal cancellation of Sunday's ride was needed.

But I couldn't waste a fine cycling day. After Bella and a lengthy call from a blue toothless caller, departure was late (after 11). Via Walton I reached Sainsbury's Cobham (the printed 11s) around 1215; unsurprisingly I didn't recognise any bikes.

Bella had left plenty of wet roads though none deep enough for wet feet. Taking no chances by Downside I went to Ripley (both cafes closed) before turning for home.

Muddy Lane has a new signpost! Its predecessor lay vandalised when last I passed this way.

It's hard to believe that there's a pandemic going on. Town centres may be largely empty but open spaces,  parks, Thames side, Muddy Lane, the Weybridge sewage path, etc etc were crowded as never before!

Roll on spring

Lockdown Mileages 2020

 

 How far did you go in the year of covid lockdown 2020?

 The time is fast approaching when you will be invited to submit your mileage totals for the past year. This may not be top of your immediate priority list, but like all good Girl Guides and Boy Scouts: Be Prepared.

This is what I said last year.

 https://midweekwayfarers.blogspot.com/2019/12/how-far-did-you-go-in-2019.html

 However, having filled this gap between Xmas and the New Year for too long, the time has come for someone more in touch with the membership to take on this cherished and dearly coveted privilege. The Committee has decreed, I understand, that the mantle should now rest on the shoulders of our dear Secretary: Tim Court, who can never resist a challenge. He must learn how to say:No! Perhaps he will delegate!

No doubt, he will soon be inviting you to submit your historically Covid reduced mileages from Jan to Dec 2020. Even with the restrictions of Tier 4, you may be tempted to go that extra mile before midnight on December 31.

Stay alert!

Jeff
