3 Goodgymmers braved the possible showers and looming dark skies to help with our task at Ring Cross Community Centre on Friday.

We agreed to offer a bike delivery service every Friday, dropping shopping parcels to residents around the Islington borough. Steve, Becca and Trainer Simon loaded up their pannier bags, and large capacity camping drysacks provided by the centre, and set off to their various locations. Our first few deliveries were very close, so some of us switched to using wheeled shopping bags instead of loading up our bikes, and proceeded on foot.

We succeeded in delivering these essential parcels to 7 households across Islington, on foot and by bike. Fantastic work, folks!
