ha ha !! I wore my yellow 'Tour' socks this morning on my ride .... they came free with the race guide one year. I am commuting to work on her this week. Thank you so much to all of you who have sponsored me so far, your support and beautiful comments mean a lot. I really struggle with the realisation that he has gone as you all do, but not forgotten .. just keep peddling
Much Love xx |

Yes, was strange to be at a race meeting without his presence last weekend. I insisted on wearing shorts and sandals all weekend (when not driving). Actually it felt quite comfortable so may continue in the vein.

Mike's family have commissioned a Tribute Calendar that uses pictures from the tribute Album on Google, and it is available from;
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114448629296 It is sold on a not-for-profit basis, and it is hoped that sufficient sales to cover the cost of printing can be achieved. Most of the work involved in producing the calendar has been provided free-of-charge by the publisher. A great 2021 calendar and a worthy cause. Bauble. |

I will be ordering my copy shortly.
I do need a calendar anyway as by mistake, I recently downloaded a colander app onto my phone. All that does is drain my battery... |

As of today, I am told that 12 copies have been sold, nine from here, based on posts. I would have hoped for more, but it is early days.

Thank you Peter, I am not up on these modern means of communication.
I am sure that there are still many who have not heard of the calendar, or how to get one, Mike had so many friends, I am sure it will sell well eventually. If you posted pictures in the Tribute album, one of yours might be included. Cheers, all. Bauble. |
