Our well-attended and lively Annual General Meeting was held at the Friends Meeting House in Canterbury on Wednesday 23 November.
Retiring chair Steve Fawke spoke about how much Spokes has achieved over the years and many of the landmark routes cyclists enjoy in the eastern half of the county have been down to the work of Spokes. See Steve's Annual Report slide presentation below
Following the 2017 committee elections, we need representatives in both Swale and Ashford districts so if you live in these districts and want to get involved please get in touch.
