On a side note….
A message for all you guys and gals who have chosen delivery of your Hughes Joinery Team Kit, may I please ask if you could wear it on our Saturday (BP Group) Rides and/or Sunday (Memorial Park) ride so we can conduct a small interview while either out on our ride or over a coffee.
