Max Dods memorial run

Thought I would send picture of the ride, which includes 3 Thanet RC
supporters, note all De Laune Members in their preferred kit.
We had a gentle ride of just under 30 miles, with a stop at the Freewheel

café/pub(which was our last feature on Twitter on the club website) for
elevenses. The café is full of cycling memorabilia, bikes all over the place, and
a fully equipped cycle workshop. Google 'The Freewheel Pub' for a pictorial
tour.

We were depleted in numbers this year for various reasons, among the
regulars missed on the ride were Roy Boy, under orders of Gina to do some
preparation work to accommodate their son James and family returning to
England and Mike Peel who is a bit under the weather at the moment.

So who was there, the Rowe’s along with Jean's twin sister Betsie. Mary
Dods who took up residence for two days. The Valentines, Mick & Debbie, Mick
& Sarah Jones, all the way from Basingstoke. The Elliot Automation Car
Rallies members of the 60's, Dave Burfoot, Lennie Brown and Kenny Legge,
along with their good ladies, Pat, Moira & Pauline, plus 3 Thanet R C members.

Finally, a surprise call from Dot in Australia, it was great to have a chat to
her and the phone was passed around to one and all. We miss you Dot!

We had an enjoyable sunny day and Lyn and I hope to see more of you in
attendance next year
