Today was a special day, 6 riders for the Scottish Coast to Coast were in action raising money for charity at their local Asda store in Colne. This was fantastically underpinned by Anne-Louise, Wendy, Neil and big Bob, Laura, Dan and Baz. From the very start the general public were very generous with their donations. Each rider took their turn to simulate the 185 miles that we will have to endure on our mission. Even Baz whipped off his clothes and gave his legs a work out and helped with the mileage. The last few miles big Bob showed us what he is made of!! Bring it on big Bob.  We actually completed 200 miles. The violent veg and balloons went down well, with most of the kids having the balloons and the adults having the violent veg....What can I say other than a really big thank you to everyone that helped yesterday, above and beyond all expectations.

It’s the season to be jolly la la la la la la la la la la and the Mudpackers ascended to Carlos, we had a little hic up at the start of the evening as Carlos had cancelled the reservation, Craig the new social secretary nearly fell at the first hurdle but....it was all sorted out once we all got there.  George was cheeky as ever and even told Dazza his stories were boring..... It was announced that a charity ride will be on the cards next year, 280 miles of it. Ben wanted a coast to coast from the top of Spain to the bottom........but mudpackers do not ride in nice warm and sunny weather so the ride is possibly the coast to coast in the UK, there and back.  After the delights of Carlos some of us went to the new wetherspoons in Colne where screw preceded to smell people’s arses.....similar to a dog....mmmmm. The person who was not allowed to go was George......Daddy said no, and like a good little boy he sat and sulked with Big Bob........big bob big bob big bob big bob big bob big bob.

We have to apologise to a couple who was having a romantic meal, until we turned up.... sorry to Laura and Dan for interrupting their romantic night and we all look forward to Dan joining us on a ride.

 Thankyou to Craig who sorted out the Christmas party.

Here is wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.
