On a hot and humid Saturday morning GoodGym was just one part of a unique cocktail of events in Bristol including a far right march (boo) an anti-fascist march (horay) and a naked bike ride (wahey)

This week's task was to run to the malago greenway to help with a community clean up, and dodge the nazis and naked people!

We met as usual at Roll for the Soul and then headed out through the city onto the greenway. When we arrived we were met with by the community group, and a whole table of cakes! We had enough time to get stuck into the clean up and then get really stuck into the cakes!

On the run on the way back we happily didn't see much sign of the fascists, plenty of people supporting refugees and the whole of the naked bike ride. I know I'll never buy a second hand bike seat.

Pictures to follow!
