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.

On a very hot Saturday morning in Canbury Gardens Laura and Claire were joined by new GoodGymer Lola on her first mission and Claire's Dad to provide some gardening advice.

Armed with weeders and forks we tackled the weeds and brambles poking though the plants and gave the laurel a trim. Having completed the less exciting weeding task it was planting time. Claire laid out the plants she had grown with the taller ones towards the back and everyone dug nice deep holes and popped them in the soil.

With the hot weather the flowerbed was in desperate need of a drink so we headed off to he river for the main work out. Buckets were launched into the river to fill up the wheelbarrows and then push them up to the flower bed. 3 trips and some damp feet that quickly dried in the sun the plants were well watered.

Lets hope the new additions like their new home and add to the lovely colours in the flowerbed for all to enjoy and we hope to see Lola at her next GoodGym mission soon.

Something a bit different on a boiling hot evening as it was all aboard the Thames Venturer for a clean-up.

The lovely old vessel, part of the River Boat Project as a floating classroom to teach children about the water, does get a bit dusty during the winter.

Petra, David and Dave were off sweeping and washing the deck, while Tom and Rachel cleaned the windows. Marcos, JP, Claire and Laura gathered fresh water to fill the tank on the boat with relay visits back to Teddington Lock Island.

Fun to be on the water in a lovely setting and hope to be back again another time. And welcome David on his first task.
