We were riding bikes and digging dykes today for our Community Mission this morning. Teaming up with Ride Kirklees, the local mountain bike advocacy group we spent a couple of hours in the sunshine clearing draining ditches/dykes to help prevent a section the popular Wessenden Valley bridleway from flooding in the future.

Well done to GoodGym first timer San Kapil and old timer Ben Godfrey who both pedalled to the job, it was good to also see Zena and Steve Whalley who hiked to the spot. Cracking effort all, our labours will help make the Wessenden bridleway more accessible and drier for the many hikers, bikers, runners and riders who regularly use this popular route.
