What an absolutely amazing weekend; I really don’t know where to begin telling everyone how wonderful it was … despite Pilots losing Saturday’s quiz by a single point.
But, thankfully, I don’t have to think too hard. The flurry of appreciative comments, flooding our WhatsApp chats are really making my life much simpler. And if you’re a TT member, and you’re eager to catch glimpses of the magical moments we experienced, then that’s where you’ll find them.
But for our friends who aren’t (yet) fully subscribed to Tandem Trekkers, here are just three thoughts, harvested from the aforementioned chats:
“Thanks everyone 😊 I think we’re the funniest cycling club 😆 what a great laugh! I had a fabulous weekend with great friends – thanks StephenD and JoanneD and Paul. Thanks to my ace stokers Jules and Elisa who are a joy to ride with! I’m sure I’ll suffer with “mini-holiday” blues. Also not sure who did the route scouting but both routes were ace!” – Judith
“It is very hard to express how grateful I am and how wonderful it has been this weekend. First of all a big thank you to Joanne and Steve who did the organising. Thanks to Louise and Charles for being my pilots and getting me safely there and back, and the wonderful company. To Judith for making me laugh like I haven’t laughed in a long time. To Kate for kindly giving me a lift home. When I would’ve had to catch a replacement bus from Mirfield, you went above and beyond. To everyone else who made it a brilliant time, thank you. I want to put my name down as well for next year.😀😀” – Kathryn
“Well what a wonderful lot you all are, a fantastic weekend with great fun all round 😊 Thanks to everyone behind the scenes who was in involved with the organising (accommodation, planing and checking out ride routes, leading rides etc) Thanks to Ahmed for the extra pedalling up the hills today and listening me ramble on about food, to Martin who yesterday had to put up with my potty-mouthed rants (whoops 😂) and to all the rest of you over the weekend for the great company, warmth and laughs.” – Kate
I think the only thing I would want to add is that we all owe a massive THANK YOU to Disability Rights UK, without whose financial support, sourced from the Together Fund, this weekend wouldn’t have been possible.
Here’s to TT Residential 2024!!!!
