Bannatyne's Spinathon

Tonight some very brave souls took part in a 3 hour sponsored Spinathon at Bannatyne's Healthclub in Wellingborough.

Thank you very much to all those who took part - you've helped us to raise an additional £131.26 towards our sponsorship!

We're featured in this month's CfA e-briefing

Our friends at the Council for Administration have been incredibly supportive of us - they very kindly sponsored one of our sleeves on our cycling tops and they are running features on us in their monthly ebriefing...

Please follow the link to see our feature in the The CfA's September e-briefing.

Our shirts arrived today & another good ride!!!

 

Yippppeeeeeeeeeeee - our sponsored shirts arrived today and here is the first of several pics (all courtesy of Val's husband Bob who was acting as our offical photographer today) to show them off :)   Highlighted in the pic below is the Apprenticeships & Train to Gain branding - sponsored by the Learning and Skills Council (thanks Viv).  This shot is being used by The Institute of Customer Service in their magazine coming out next month...

The Council for Administration sponsored us by taking a sleeve on our cycling tops (thanks Helen) - this shot was featured in this months CfA ebriefing (follow this link if you'd like to have a look at the article http://www.cfa.uk.com/ebriefing/sept08/ebrief_sept08.htm)

Quibus Consulting very kindly sponsored this sleeve - thanks very much Mahesh :)

As you can see we're pretty logo-ed up - the back of our shirts were sponsored by Dri-eaz and the Legend Brands (thanks Paul), Kebreco (thanks Keith) and McShane Wright (thanks Liam).

Now onto today's cycle... 

 

We cycled from Irchester to Rushden, down the A6 towards Bedford, through Souldrop, down through the Knottings into Melchbourne and then onto Yelden and Shelton before heading back home - another good ride :)

As ever, you can see all the pics on our Flickr page...
