A big thank you to Sono for hosting a really great bike painting and BBQ evening, with an excellent turnout of enthusiastic Pedallers, turning rusting wrecks into brightly covered bikes!
The front garden of Sono’s home was turned into an outdoor paint shop with Jolly, Barley, Buster, Quiff, Bar Bunny, Woodworm, Whinger, Madal and Sono all at hand as a work party. The project is to provide at least a dozen bicycles that will be painted, each in a single colour and then used to decorate a |

At the start of the May bank holiday weekend, a group of fifteen Axe Valley Pedallers took a day trip to Guernsey. An early start was required as the fast ferry from Weymouth was due to leave at 08:00. Everyone arrived at the ferry port with time to spare and three tandems and nine solos were safely wheeled on board to set off for shores afar. We arrived in Guernsey just after 10:00 and made our way eastwards out of St Peter Port heading for Cobo bay. |

The Axe Valley Pedallers left the Axe valley for April's Sunday club ride with the meeting point being Dartington Cider Press Centre with the 8 riders arriving from several directions. The sun was shining and the day was promising to get a bit warmer. We all had a hot drink to get us going and then we hit the cycle trail into Totnes - a little bit of off-road along the river was a pleasant start and then it was through Totnes to our first hill, it was pretty steep and long which took us all by surprise! Of course, if you go up you have to come down, so we had a nice descent towards the picturesque village of Ashprington. We carried on along the beautiful River Dart to Dittisham where we stopped for lunch in a popular cafe serving lovely local foods.

A civic reception was held on Friday 16th April 2010 in Seaton’s Town Hall to launch The Great Tour. A 6,600 km bicycle journey around the coastline of Great Britain in 64 consecutive days. Members of the Axe Valley Pedallers committee who also are part of the group coordinating the Seaton Festival of Cycling were at hand to listen to all the exciting news.
It is incredible to think that Seaton will be hosting the start and finish of the inaugural ride of this high |
