  5. Patricia Kain (verified owner)

    Cathy was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble I recommend this to anybody. It was easy to park and the parking charge for 12 hours was £5 right nearby. Very friendly very unknowledgeable thank you so much I thoroughly enjoyed myself

    • Catherine Wright (store manager)

      Thank you Tricia, I really enjoyed it too. I hope you continue to have many hours happy spinning

    Even though I was very slow at everything with my lefthand not having any fine moor skills after my stroke. Cathy was very patient with me and went over my drafting technique a few times. I ran out of time to play, so Cathy did it for me. I am happy to have done the course as I was booked on originally in March 2020 and that was cancelled obviously due to the pandemic. Very enjoyable day. I had lunch in the Ryder cafe with Cathy and another attendee.

    A lovely atmosphere, everyone was friendly and Cathy was very patient.
