Thanks for the suggestion on using local businesses. I would actually prefer us to use another coffee shop (although I assume Costa is a locally owned franchise), such as All Things Nice or Cloudberry, but as already indicated, by the time they open we are finished and home! Having said that, I am informed Rick at ATN is open to ideas so we may look at doing a special post ride breakfast once in a while - probably once we have more members and can guarantee 20 or so people for him. In the meantime, I have had some preliminary discussion- with the cricket club about possibly basing the Spinners there, on the assumption they buy a good coffee machine! And just finally, we encourage Spinners to use local bike repair companies such as Pedal Power and Recon.
