cyclist activity badge (40km cycle ride at little stoke park) 30/04/2016

There is a reason we don't do the cyclist activity badge very often.......... the 40km ride is tough going even on a lovely spring day in a picturesque location. We had eleven scouts turn up to take on this challenge and a large number of parents and helpers. After the safety brief was over away the group went, leaders amongst the mix. It didn't take too many laps to spread the group out and the first scouts to finish did the 24 laps in 2 hours and 20 minutes. The weather was very kind to us and we were all done by 2.30pm, having plenty of breaks for drinks and lunch. Thank you to Holly for organising the activity towards her Y/L award. Also need to mention 1st Little Stoke for letting us use their hut for toilets etc. Finally a massive WELL DONE to all that took part, you all did a great job and deserve this section of the cyclist activity badge.
