  • Thursday 3Rd May. Mangotsfield to Bradford on Avon. Report from Pete Campbell
    Thursday 3rd May. Mangotsfield to Bradford on Avon. Report from Pete Campbell: Oh no! Bill called in sick with a urinary tract infection which sounds bad to me (never having had one) and is apparently worse. He's feeling better than he was now that the antibiotics are helping but we're not sure when the Giant will be back on the road. Also on the subject of sickness, Alex has been fitted with a pacemaker so we can expect bionic performances from him when he's back with us. So with Bill being on the sofa with a cup of tea, you're having to make do with my idea of what today's faster ride was like. When people are being asked to lead a ride, I always like to say that the format is "entirely up to you - as fast or as slow as you like, up as many hills as you like." Some look for a flat route, some take a leisurely approach with maybe a stop for a cultural interlude. Martyn was leading today, so it was likely we'd be at the faster end of the spectrum. Steve had arranged a less intense ride for any sensible people turning up at Mangotsfield station, and he had a few takers. So a group of maybe fifteen or sixteen left in the direction of Pucklechurch. Before the village Chris Hume realised he'd thought today's pace would be the normal Thursday pace (what a mistake) and turned back. After climbing the Hinton bypass Mike Sennett realised he'd also made the same mistake and decided to make his own way to Bradford on Avon.

The council received 14 letters of objection from people living nearby (the closest homes are on Hinton Drive about 25 metres away) with concerns raised including an increase in noise, dust and pollution and that the company don’t adhere to existing times. One resident pointed out that if the firm are concerned about breaching the terms of their current permission, they should stop deliveries earlier to ensure that their lorries are back on site in time and not impact the lives of residents and wildlife. Siston parish councillors also strongly objected to the proposal due to the noise nuisance and increase in traffic in such close proximity to homes.

We are now going to publish two walks programmes per year, January – June and July – December, thank you as always to our amazing walk leaders for being so helpful in making these changes happen. During the past programme we have been joined by a further eight new walk leaders, which is fantastic. Thank you so much to all the volunteers who came forward. This means that some of our walks which were seriously under threat can now continue. But we always need more help. If you walk regularly and think you would like to be involved in becoming part of the team then please do contact me. Training is fun, friendly and free! Without our walk leaders there would be no walks, and the difference they make to so many lives is invaluable. Which brings me nicely to another venues and organising the programme enormous THANK YOU to two of our and always being there ready to welcome Sodbury Yate Dodington leaders.
