With snow falling overnight, only two riders turned out for our annual "Christmas Dinner Ride", and, deciding it really wasn't safe to ride, went for a walk along the canal bank instead.
We still had a good turn out for the Christmas Dinner itself, and presentation of awards at Rolls Royce Social Club in Barnoldswick.
Challenge Rides
After the meal, certificates were presented to those riders who had completed one or more of our five Challenge Rides, held throughout the year.
A special mention for John Ramsden, being the only member to complete the 50 mile Challenge Ride in appalling conditions.

Congrtulations to all...
Any members who were not able to attend the Christmas Dinner, and would like their certificates, should contact Jim Duerden.
Trophies
Next the Bill Heywood and Jack Harrison trophies were awarded to Mick Stone and Harry Taylor. These are presented based on merit / services to the club as decied by the committee. As Mick was unable to attend the Dinner, his trophy was accepted on his behalf by Sean Kirkwood who will ensure Mick receives it in the next day or so.
Congratulations to both...
