Interview with Frances Bonikowski
How long have you been cycling and when did you join Penge CC? I started cycling when I was 30 and (following a pattern that I’m sure is familiar to many of you) realised it was time to grow up a bit and start doing some exercise. I borrowed a ludicrously heavy mountain bike which
Interview with Hugh Stultz
Once upon a time I considered joining a cycling club, so I joined Penge and cycled happily ever after. Obviously, this is the corniest way to speak about why I joined Penge but the fairy tale motif encapsulates the truth. Over six years ago I remember going on my first ride. I remember climbing “Hogstrough”

Just for a moment, I contemplated altering the title of this email, but maybe next week. We are stlll not supposed to ride in groups of more than 2, but plans are now advanced for our return to more normal outdoor club activities. Next week, I will set out how we plan to re-start group

I said a while ago that I planned to resurrect the innovation from Lockdown 1 for these Friday emails of asking others to contribute.

Tier 4 Lockdown Week 48, 25 February 2021
I allowed the hope to creep in. I always do it, however much I try to discipline myself and prepare for the worst. I really thought we’d be out in groups of 6 from early March and frankly, by now, I think a good proportion of the country is looking at the harm wrought by
Tier 4 Lockdown Week 47, 19 February 2021
Remember I said we’d take this a week at a time; not get too far ahead of ourselves and start thinking about getting back to group riding. I meant it too, it’s just that at some point we have to start planning ahead. The smart money is on schools going back from 8th March. Call

Funny week last week. I usually bang out these emails and if one or two people comment on them, it’s usually because I have said something insensitive or dumb. In the last 3 weeks I have had many people reply to me and we’ve even sparked off a couple of Facebook chats. I’m self-aware enough
