National Bike Week (www.salisbury.gov.uk) is upon us and it got off to great start with the opening of the Golden Way (9th June). As much as we were disappointed that Jon Snow was not able to turn we still had 60 cyclists and the Deputy Porfolio Holder for Transportation and her four children. Cheesy video interviews can be seen on (www.visionnews.co.uk)
The following week we had the Bike Awareness Day (Saturday 16th June) in Salisbury Market Square followed by the Deputy Mayor “Iris Evans'” Cavalcade – unfortunately, due to a back injury Iris is unable to cycle but she sent us off with speech worthy of Robert The Bruce - the cars did not stand a chance (never mind that we were just stuck in traffic jams as we circumnavigated the inner city.
Sunday 17th June found Gill leading off 13 cyclists to the Quaker Open Garden - beautiful spot down by the river near Alderbury. Of course we had to stop off at the Three Crown in Whaddon for quick snack and a few pints of ale.
