Free information evening: Wednesday 19 July, 6pm, Willen Hospice Cafe, MK15 9AB. No need to register, just come along to find out more.
Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to ride the infamous Raid Alpine route, starting at Lake Geneva in Switzerland and finishing on the French Riviera in Nice.
This challenge is suitable for experienced cyclists who can endure a 635km journey, with 14,000m of climbing.
Organised by road cycling tour experts Mellow Jersey, you can stay focused on the
ride while they organise the rest. The money raised from this challenge will make
a huge difference to the local families in our care who have been affected by a life-
limiting illness.

Its frankly unbelievable that the police would throw so much resourse at this by trawling social media to find supporting evidence of your swearing...
Like so?
This is the reply I got when I reported a van completely blocking a cycle path....
But presumably they a) did something (and can proudly say so) and b) successfully used up an active travel budget / got a funding tranche......
