D-Day Remembered
Event info
A ‘Ride to Remember’
The next ride will recognise the 70th Anniversary of the D-Day Landings:
‘The Ride’ will be themed on 70 riders, riding 70 miles a day over 7 days;
‘The Ride’ will start from Cherbourg and follow the D-Day Beaches;
‘The Ride’ will then turn south and head for the Loire Valley and Ligueil;
‘The Ride’ will then head back via Argentan (subject to distances) to Caen;
‘The Ride’ will technically finish at Pegasus Bridge where a reception would be organised;
The last day will culminate in all available riders regrouping at Newbury for a return ride to Hungerford on a Saturday morning, to generally make ‘The Ride’s’ presence known to the community.
The Beneficiaries 2014
The two beneficiaries for the 2014 Ride would be:
Bruce Trust Barges – A well loved & respected local cause;
War Child – themed with D-Day Landings and so deserving of our / your support.

But 'rich' Park Tools do invest some of their profits into excellent bike maintenance tutorials (you hear that, Xenophon2…).
Really? My guess would be most people learned to ride a bike as young children, and probably rode around local parks while their parent(s) followed...
Honestly, I really wouldn't wanna park anything worth more than £200-£300 at most on the street, even in those bike hangers. Amazed it has taken so...
Glad he is ok....
Metal tyre levers?
Yep. Cover your eyes, block your ears and sing loudly. That way you won't have to read or listen to a differing point of view....
