A fantastic turnout of Pedallers helped to make rapid progress on the roundabout at Fisherman’s Gap. Not only were the fixing posts installed, but all of the bikes were set in concrete as well!
Welding takes place tomorrow night and some touch up painting and then its flower power to the bikes! |

5 Pedallers achieved their very first 100 mile ride on the Chairman’s invitation ride Madal’s 100. On a day of varied terrain with bridlepaths, cycle tracks, two ferries, busy roads and quite country lanes, 5 Pedallers notched up over 100 miles and cycled up the equivalent of sea level to the top of Snowdon twice! This was all done on a convoluted route to Teignmouth and back. |

Four members of Axe Valley Pedallers travelled up to Canary Wharf to watch the start of the Halfords Tour Series and one ended up on the podium for all of the presentations!
Sooty, Quiff, Alysun and Madal were all up in London to work with The Prostate Cancer Charity team that is promoting the South West Tour Ride on Sunday 5 th September. At the very last minute, a stand in for Tobi, The Tour mascot was needed and Alysun (James Cope) stepped into the role, entertained the crowds and stood up on the podium with the individual and team winners (and the podium girls)!
Don't forget Thursday 3rd June, Round Four of the Halfords Tour Series in Exeter Tour Series Exeter
Well done Alysun, pity you didn’t have a very large AVP shirt! |

The Tour Series city centre cycle racing in Exeter last year was a huge success and inspired cyclists all over East Devon to get on their bikes. This year’s race is being held on the 3rd of June and three local cycling clubs Exeter Wheelers, C S Dynamo (Exmouth) and Axe Valley Pedallers have taken this opportunity to encourage East Devon’s cyclists to have a go at racing for themselves.
With the help of the South West’s British Cycling Events Co-ordinator Andrew Parker and Zsolt Schuller, Cycling Officer for Devon County Council they have worked hard to set up a series of 3 events that give young and novice cyclists a taste of racing and the chance to learn new bike skills. Entry level “Go Ride” events encourage anyone to try racing without specialist equipment, Lycra or even club membership. All bikes and abilities are catered for and there is even a bit of bike maintenance and advice on the day.

Yet another brilliant evening was enjoyed by members of AVP as they gathered at Sono’s place for a bike painting session followed by an even better BBQ than last week! Well done to all who turned up: Sono, Whinger, Woodworm, No 10, Fishnet, Quiff, Bar Bunny, Ketchup and Madal.
There is going to be a planning and design meeting this Thursday with Seaton Town Council and then another bike painting session and BBQ at Sono’s on Wednesday 26th May. If you’ve not already joined in, now is the time to help out on this artistic AVP creation. |
