Snodland Bike Club had a great Christmas party on Tuesday, with a decorate your bike competition and plenty of fun and games and food and drink.
We could also show off our new lightweight, portable and super bright floodlights!
We bought them through @NightSearcherLtd who gave us a special price, delivered them personally to make sure we had them for our party and basically went a lot more than the extra mile to ensure everything was as it should be. They were as brilliant as our new lights and we thoroughly recommend them as a leader in portable, rechargeable LED lighting and power solutions. For more information, see here: https://nightsearcher.co.uk
The lights were purchased through a Kent Police fund and we are very grateful for that too.

Headline - Almost half of British people can’t afford to buy a bike...
What if you didn`t need to buy a new bike?
What if you could refurbish your old one with help from friendly, inclusive and supportive bike projects?
Less waste
Less money
More learning
More smiles
Just sayin...

Today we took a Cheer Squad to @malling.parkrun at Leybourne Lakes to clap and support all the brilliant runners - but also to get the message out about our little bike club, the Snodland Riders Community Cycle Club.
We had a fantastic time and everyone loved it!
Thank you so much to the riders who have up their time to promote our club.

There are an increasing number of countries that are seizing upon the benefits of cycling...this article is about India. Similar findings to barriers towards cycling...speeding cars, heavy traffic, poorly maintained roads...sound familiar?
The benefits listed in the article are vast, here`s a quote from the article
`Cycling offers an all-encompassing spectrum of benefits, enhancing cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, and joint flexibility, while also managing weight. It is also a potent stress reliever, elevating mood, fostering mental clarity, improving sleep quality, and boosting self-esteem for overall well-being. The emergence of group cycling has paved the way towards vibrant community building, enabling people to thrive socially and multiply their potential in numerous ways.`
