Women On Wheels "WOW" - See PROGAMME 62 participants took part in this years Women On Wheels Event Some of the feedback we received from the participants of WOW 09 - Thanks for coming Clair and Sam Yesterday was great. I loved the chance to get some lessons and to see what kind of level I can bike at. I had thought I was a complete beginner having had no lessons and always just tagging along behind my partner on routes! Emma just wanted to say thanks for a fantastic day. we all really enjoyed it and my daughters confidence on the trails has improved dramatically. her and her friend are desperate to go back asap!!! We're off to mabie and ae this weekend but hope to be back at kirroughtree many times over the summer. Kathleen Thank you for an amazing event yesterday. I came down from Edinburgh and it was worth the miles. I had a guided session with Colin Riley who was really excellent. Got some very useful tips and a real confidence boost. A big thumbs up to Colin. Kelly Edinburgh Thanks a million for a great day - it was nice to spend time working on specific skills and gave me a taste for more. The instructor was very patient and didn't just expect us to have mastered the basics. Noleen Just wanted to say thanks for organising yesterday's event. Me & my pals had a great day!- tara
