LES LOWE – MUCH MISSED
Recently some riders went off course in an important (non-TA) timetrial.
In a forum post-mortem on this mishap, I noticed this poignant comment:
“Didn’t Les Lowe on his trike used to be the marshal at that point on the course – where people got confused last weekend ? He’d always be there, bless him!
***********************************************************************************************
Next Weekend – October 7th/8th is
LINCOLN WHEELERS TRIKE AND TANDEM WEEKEND
I haven’t heard much about that – I guess Pete Holland 01526 322633 is the best source of information.
Attached to this edition is the TA EAST PROGRAMME for the forthcoming Winter
I do hope to meet as many members as possible over “The Social Season” (Webmaster’s note: See Calendar)
Best Wishes to You All
