Photo’s are now online from the Xmas meeting of the BikeWise Mini Bike Club which was held at our new indoor venue at QC Space, Peterlee on Saturday 17th December .
A great turnout on the day and some hard work had been put into Xmas costumes and decorations for our riders and their bikes.
Another year done and another successful year for the mini bike club, riders come & go but we always have a ‘hardcore’ of families who support the club (even after there own children have left the club).
The club is coming up five years old in January and it continues to grow and thrive due to this support, it would be wrong to name people but you know how much your support is appreciated by the BikeWise ‘team’
‘Many Thanks’ to all who helped build (and take down) the track, for signing riders on and marshalling throughout the day. We couldn't run the events without your support.
It was great to welcome Chairman of Durham County Council, Dennis Morgan to our event as he handed out gifts to our riders. The club was initially supported by former chairman of the council Albert Nugent who provided funds and support in the early days and Dennis has subsequently supported the club in the later years. The skills our members are achieving now in riding their mini bikes will help them in the future when they eventually start riding / driving on Durham's roads. Councillor Morgan spoke about Durham’s road safety record and how he was proud of what our riders were achieving.
The date of our next meeting is Saturday 14th January 2012 at QC Space although there is an indoor mini bike session at :
PPIK at Leeds on Thursday 29th December 6pm – 10pm. For further info contact PPIK on 0845 12 606 13 or email them on info@ppik.net
