Lego-ing around Solihull

Wednesday 15th December 2021

Written by Rob

Last night Chris, Fiona and Rob were back out delivering flyers for Sustrains Solihull.

As last week, we hadn't managed to get around the whole of our designated roads! We set off with the reminder of the flyers ready to inform the people of Solihull about all the great work Sustrains will be doing.

We hit the pavements trying to find the best decorated house, even managing to find a house that looked like it would be better suited in Miami with its own palm trees. With all this excitement, we managed to get through all the remainders of flyers in no time, meaning there was enough time left for us to do a run back to base. Running once again down Solihull high street to try and get another photo with the Christmas cows.

We will be out again next week for another run and Christmas drink (covid allowing) it would be great to see you there.

The sticky bandits

Wednesday 8th December 2021

Written by Rob

Last night saw a new task in Solihull, delivering leaflets for Sustrains,  who create cycle networks all over the country!

With our leaflets in hand and the list of street to deliver to, Rob, Fiona and Chris set off with the task of seeing how many we could deliver in 45 minutes, which would then give us enough time to run back to base.  We were greeted by some huge houses and driveways which gave us the opportunity to do some running in between houses but to also have a catch up along the way.

Once the 45 minutes were up and taken, a photo by a very festive tree in someone's front garden, we thought it would be a good time to turn around and run back to base. Unfortunately, we hadn't realised just how close we were to base so added in an extra loop around down the high street, stopping to have our picture taken with Christmassy cows!

Next week we will be back doing good again - this will be our last before the Christmas break so would be good to see you there.
