June/July Workday & Signing Rides

Well I hope you are taking the advantage of this nice weather after all the rain a few weeks back and maybe have had a look around your local NCN, if you haven't yet then how about joining in the following workdays and signing rides throughout June and July.

I've confirmed locations for the first few but as we get through them I will reveal more. On a whole Sunday's have tended to be the most successful day and week day evenings but do get in touch if you have preferences in days and the type of workdays/rides you want, it can be hard to cater all needs but I look forward to seeing you.
