MEG Free Bicycle Scheme

The scheme has been flourishing over the past year with over 520 refurbished bikes passed on free to delighted new owners, after necessary work and refurbishment. We also carry out servicing to anyone's bike to get them back on the road free of any labour charge - we just charge the cost-price of any parts used.

So, if you're looking for a bike, give Brett a call on 01686 669730 and we should be able to help.

Getting on a bike not only gets you fitter but also saves CO₂ - recycling a bike saves about ½ tonne of CO₂ compared to making a new one!

Llandyssil Walking Group

A full programme of monthly walks will resume in the spring, on the 4^th Wednesday of each month. We are also regularly invited to join the Montgomery group on the 2^nd Wednesday of the month and also the Berriew group, which offers two walks a month, but not on any fixed days.

A number of folks are regular walkers with their dogs. Sadly, there is an increasing problem of dog mess. Please ensure that every dog walker clears up thoroughly after their dog every time.

I wonder how many people have made use of the walk display on the end wall of the village bus shelter?

Keep walking and enjoy our beautiful countryside, but please remember the Country Code:

Be considerate of others living and working in the countryside
Leave all gates as you find them
Keep to the waymarked paths
Take all your litter home - if possible, take home a few extra pieces, there's plenty of it about!
Keep your dog under close control at all times and pick up & properly dispose of any dog waste.
Keep your dog on a short lead when around livestock - remember, a farmer is entitled to shoot any dog seen to be worrying or attacking their animals

Look out for details of upcoming walks and join us if you can, to share the beautiful area in which we're very fortunate to live. If you'd like more details, please contact me: Mike Membery at mikemem@phonecoop.coop or give me a call on 01686 668643.
