Hi Guys - does anyone have an old kayak they don't need anymore as we are trying to build a kayak soapbox. It doesn't matter if it has holes in it, as not going in water , it is having wheels put on it. Thanks Liz and Ollie x

Jeff came in today to say goodbye before he cycles off to Nairobi next week. It's been amazing meeting Jeff, and hearing all his stories - he has pedalled through countries, continents, the world! He says he rarely felt threatened or intimidated, and people have been universally kind to him wherever he went :) Safe travelling Jeff, until we meet again x

What’s the best way to travel to your work Christmas lunch? On your bike of course!

The Kirkcudbright office at Gillespie Gifford & Brown decided to celebrate their Christmas lunch with a twist, with all the team travelling by bicycle to the School House Tearoom in Ringford. And they stuck to their plan despite the rain!

Kirkcudbright Cycles for Life were happy to help out, supplying bikes to those that needed them. It was a double celebration, as Gavin Scott is retiring, and as a keen cyclist, he was the inspiration for them to get on their bikes.
