What a great day. 30 miles on the C&D Canal with 23 riders, beautiful weather and an awesome lunch at Shaffers Canal House. Doesn’t get much better than this.
Last night’s Bike Safety Event was attended by Sussex Cyclists Steve Graninali, Andy Blair, Chris Braudy, and Jim Prettyman. Also helping were DelDot’s John Fiori and Mary Roth and Jack Feherey from the Lewes Bike and Pedestrian Advisory Committee. Also joining us were officers Poorman, Burton, and Holton from the Lewes Police Department. We helped well over twenty cyclists.

Sussex Cyclists recently held a tire changing event at Dewey Beer in Harbeson. Brian and Ben from Lewes Cycle provided a hands-on demonstration filled with many useful tips. Attendees were able to practice on their own wheels. Mike from Dewey Beer gave a tour of the brewery and the beer making process. Pizza Machine pizza was made available by the Social Committee. It was a fun and informative night thanks to everyone who participated.

A big thank you to our very own Gil Hofheimer, Mike Savage, and the many other Sussex Cyclists volunteers for their outstanding work helping to make year's Wheels 4 Meals event the biggest one ever! Even Terri Martin, pictured below, joined in the fun!
