Well done to Tessa, who joined me for round two helping Maidenhead Cycle Hub workshop shift the contents of their workshop into their new premises on (bicycle) Bell Street.

Tessa got there before me and did a wheely great job sorting a big pile of tyres into different sizes, ready for tidy storage in their new home. Shortly after I arrived a truck pulled up and needed unloading, so along with volunteers and engineers from Cycle Hub, we carried in boxes of tools, bike parts and various pieces of shelving and racking. With the music (tyre) pumping and lots of us working together we really shifted gear!

While we waited for the next truck Tessa and I were asked to sort out boxes of inner tubes by size and line them up on the shelf. This definitely got the cogs turning, but we eventually got a handle(bar) on it. After that it was time for Tessa to make (bike) tracks, whilst I stayed to help unload one more truck-ful.

Thanks to the Cycle Hub team for making us feel so welcome. We wish you every success pedalling your wares from your new home! We also can't wait to come back and weed that courtyard...
