Barry & Marcus Visit 21/10/15

Barry and Marcus are coming down to our area next Wednesday (21 October), aiming to get in the area for 09:45 at the Belvoir Road access ramp to do some hedge and tree cutting work. Map here.

If you can come and lend a hand then I am sure they will be very much glad of the help and I hope to be with them so I can be contacted on the day via my mobile number.

03/10/15 Workday Review + Next Workday

So for last Saturday's workday myself and Richard did some work in the Longmoor Lane access area of the old railpath (ex NCN). I concentrated on the access point tackling the cutting back of brambles on the bridge embankment whilst Richard worked along the Longmoor Lane taking out an obstructions and helping to clear a way for the following days users of the Viking Challenge.
As you can see in the photo there is still lots to do so we shall return to the area in the next penned in day of Sunday 18 October. Full detail below. 


Richard rode the Viking Challenge the following day on his personally adapted Trek and had remarked how our routes looked good and manicured compared to other routes the Vikings took on. This clearly shows all your hard work over the years is paying off whilst we continually keep on top of things on the NCN and connecting routes, so a big thank you to all your past workday activity and lone activity. 

Sunday 18 October 10:30- 12:30 
Meet: Belvoir Road, Denton access ramp to NCN link along old rail path. 
See map here.
To do: After meeting at Belvoir Road we shall cycle down along rail path to access point at Longmoor Lane to tidy up and cut back the vegetation.
To bring: Any tools to clear vegetation/path, gloves, volunteer hi-viz and don't forget your mug for a tea or coffee.

Discovery Day- Final Thoughts

So Discovery Day is upon us this Sunday, thank you to those of you who have been in touch with me regards to your availability on the day to help out on our stall, for those who haven't been in touch, it's still not to late to get in touch with me to let me know if you can or cannot help on the day within one of the timed slots. As with the Green Fayre I've split the day up into 3 time slots, a remind of those here on the past blog posting.

We will have the usual array of local maps, information, advice and small items to purchase. I'll be picking up the Sustrans materials tomorrow from the Nottingham office to help show of our wears in the events big marquee. (I'll be in touch Friday p.m.with regards our Sustrans tee shirts).

Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you there if able.
