Hannah Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 As I'm sure many of you already know, Owen and I are moving on to pastures new this month after I accepted a job offer in Darlington.We are sad to leave Speeds and Bromsgrove behind, but we will continue to be Saracen members. We'll wave the Saracen flag up north whenever possible!We are due to leave for our new home on Sunday 30th October; so Sunday 23rd October will be our last full Sunday here.The last three weekends we have been house hunting and as such have not been out on club rides, but this Sunday we'd like to see as many of you as poss before we go. Given that the days are growing shorter (and colder!) and given that Coffee 1 in Pershore has always been one of our favourite haunts we'd like to suggest making this cafe the destination for this week's club run. Owen and I will be driving there (we're conserving energy for the packing and the 200 mile move!) with a view of getting to the cafe for about 11am. Let me know how you feel about that and if it's something the club would like to do that's fab. If anyone has got any other suggestions let us know!

Leigh Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Owen , Hannahwill make my own way there as it will remind you of what it is you are fleeing from !!! Seriously, will be sad to see you both go as Speeds has been such a great place to go to whilst you were both there and you have brought much to the club .Mind even with Hannah going I don't think I'll will the skittles!! I am sure you will both prosper with your talents and attitude . All the best for the future .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted October 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Thank you for your kind words Leigh! Will be great to see you before we go! I know there's talk of Speedy Kev, Lee De Gray and Mick Dalton coming over and I hope to see a few more faces!If there are any concerns about bike storage outside the cafe I've been told the cafe often allows cyclists to take their bikes through to the courtyard at the back. I can ring Coffee 1 tomorrow to confirm this if there are concerns about numbers/bike security.Owen and I plan to be here from 11am and we will stay for a couple of hours, sampling their lovely coffee and cake!
