Christmas has crept up and in our eagerness to renovate our office in Bedminster and decorate the shop, we’ve totally overlooked any type of staff Christmas party. Instead we’ve decided to share the festivities with you all! This Sunday (15th December) we will be hosting some Christmas fun at our Ashton Court shop. Have a read below to see what’s going on and we hope to see you there.
The Santa Ride
At 10am, we will host a local ride in Leigh Woods and Ashton Court. Meet outside the cycle hub building at Ashton Court. This won’t be just any old ride, it’s the Santa Ride! We want to see you there in full Christmas fancy dress with us! Anything Christmassy is good. You don’t need to dress up as Santa. In fact we’d love to see some trees, elves, Christmas puddings and perhaps even presents! Just make sure your costume isn’t too wide or you’ll be getting stuck between trees on the trail! We’ve even got BBC Radio Bristol coming along to cover the event which is cool yet ironic being that it’ll be a great visual spectacle.
If enough people turn up we will have a longer faster ride and a slower shorter ride ideal for families and kids. Both of these will be group rides and not a guided ride. We will aim to stay together as a group but this can be difficult on singletrack trails so you need to be self sufficient. You are responsible for yourself and any dependants you bring. If you are riding with kids we recommend that you ride 1 adult to 2 children max.
To sign up and for all the detailed info on where to meet, what to bring, what to expect etc please go to the British Cycling Let’s ride event page here.
Join us after for a winter warmer – BYO!
Come and hang out for a chat and warm beverage afterwards! We don’t have a licence to supply alcohol or sell food and drink so our workaround is provide heating facilities for you to BYO! If you’d like to bring a bottle of mulled wine, you can add it to the pot and help yourself. Please bring a mug. We’ll have a pan of hot squash on the go for the kids.
