Re: LIDBA - annehall (8th Jun 2015 - 14:55:23) A big thank you to the team of riders who took part in the Lidba Bike ride to raise money for Liphook Day Centre. Also the people who purchased items from our stall. The large Teddy was won by Mrs M.Coyte who guessed the name of "Clinton". A wonderful day organised by the dedicated team at Lidba who have tirelessly organised the event over the last 25 years. Thank you everyone.

Re: LIDBA - LiDBA (10th Jun 2015 - 13:29:11) LIDBA CHARITY BIKE RIDE JUNE 7 2015 Perfect weather combined with reaching the £1 million target for funds raised over the 25 years of the Lidba charity bike ride made this a really memorable occasion. Smoothly organised by Lidba as ever, 800 riders enjoyed the main 25 mile ride through beautiful countryside that looked at its best. First back in a very creditable 1 hour 4 minutes was Ben Williams, only 17 and from Liphook. Fifth back, not far behind, was 13 year old Mathew, who commented that he was probably held back by staying alongside his dad! A fearsome prospect for future cycling glory! Joint first ladies back, also very close behind, were Annika Gleichmann and a friend whose name has unfortunately temporarily eluded your correspondent. Apologies to her. The junior ride was a smash hit success with 216 riders. This total has been trending steadily up, and is double the figure for only 3 years ago. Some astonishing performances must have cost sponsors dearly. Several young riders were rumoured to have covered more than 120 laps, equivalent to about 30 miles! After a superb day, thanks as always to all the cyclists, the marshalls, the admin assistants, Owens cycles for their lead sponsorship, and motorists for their tolerance. And congratulations to Stuart Munro, the Lidba bike ride chairman, Rick Beynon, the chief administrator and Ed Lawrence for masterminding the junior ride.
