It was scorching outside, but the team pedalled and walked into the cool sanctuary of the Full Cycle workshop where we were greeted by the usual tasks that were perfectly geared to keep us moving. We wasted no time dividing and conquering them all!
While one group didn't let the pressure get to them and tackled the massive backlog of inner tubes, another shifted focus to the workbenches, labelling tools and ensuring everything was in its rightful place. Simultaneously, the cardboard and tyres for recycling was collected and bagged up.
By multitasking our way to victory, we really pumped up the productivity and left the workshop looking spoke-tacular.

It was a full-on session at Full Cycle this week, bolstered by some fantastic neighbouring support - a few members of the GoodGym Merton team cycled across the borough to lend a hand with the packed to-do list.
In the workshop, it was all hands on deck as we dove into the usual recycling of inner tubes and tyres. This included sorting through wheel rims and tackling the somewhat difficult job of removing stubborn rubber from the metal.
Outside, the mission felt like a high-stakes game of bike Tetris. We had to move a sea of cycles and untangle them from encroaching brambles just to create a workspace. Once we had the room, the team made short work of cutting back the overgrowth, sweeping up leaves, and clearing rubbish before neatly returning every bike to storage.
Heavy lifting, tricky logistics, and plenty of camaraderie: just another un-tyre-ing group session!

Tonight’s group session saw us return to the Full Cycle Bicycle Project to work through a varied to-do list. The main job was tackling a mountain of inner tube rolling - it's been a while since we have been here it seems! There was also packing up tyres for collection.
The team didn't stop there; we were busy cleaning and labelling bikes, re-colour-coding tools on the workbenches, and even scrubbed a stack of filthy drawers to make them fit for glove storage.
A great session, well done everyone and welcome to John - we hope to see you again soon.

We returned to Full Cycle this evening for our group run to power through the remaining tasks on our to-do list - we have our own whiteboard of jobs these days! Of course, the team shifted into gear and wasted no time getting stuck into the usual recycling jobs: sorting cardboard, inner tubes, and tyres for collection.
Then some of us tackled the mountain of wheels, separating tyres from rims and reorganising the storage space to ensure we were using every bit of space efficiently, leaving things spoke and span.
It was a high-energy session of lifting, sorting, and shifting. Some areas of the workshop look some what transformed, so it was another productive night in the bag for GoodGym Kingston. Wheely well done team!

Five hardy GoodGymers from Kingston, Merton, and Ealing braved a soggy journey, and a few navigational detours, to support Full Cycle tonight.
Despite the downpour, the team shifted into gear to tackle the list:
Massive kudos for showing up and powering your way through the list of jobs. You’ve definitely earned a warm evening in and some serious January Challenge credit.

We headed over to Full Cycle for our group session tonight, where a big list of jobs was waiting for us on the whiteboard.
Spllitting into pairs we tacklrd a variety of tasks: - Helping with recycling cardboard, old tyres, inner tubes, and scrap metal. - Reorganising bikes and sorting numerous bike parts, including stems, handlebars, and pedals.
As we reached the bottom of the list we left behind plenty of tidy space where chaos once reigned. Then finished up with taking a moment to celebrate an amazing achievement - Rachel completing 500 good deeds! What an inspiration - well done!
