The
money raised supports the maintenance of these lovely buildings. One |
|
Family Bike Ride |
|
| |
appreciates how
magnificent some of them are when taking time on a day like |
|
|
|
| |
this to visit, compare,
and contrast a number of churches in quick succession. |
|
|
|
| |
This is made possible by
those people that support the event by manning the |
|
|
|
| |
churches on the day to
allow them all to be open. |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
The need for maintenance
is particularly acute for many churches arising |
|
|
|
| |
from the theft of lead
roofing materials over the last two years. |

This year's event….. |

… will take place on Sept
13th. The links here provide more information |

about the event, and I
hope you will be encouraged to join in. |

The route that you take
and distance that you travel is entirely up to you, |
|
|
|
|
| |
but I have made some
suggestions of routes from Guilsborough, |
|
|
|
|
| |
including the 50 Mile Challenge
Route which those that tried it last |
|
|
|
|
| |
year found very
enjoyable. I hope that more of you will take the challenge |
|
|
|
|
| |
this year. |

Thank you once again for
your support. |
