Not that that would be me, but it does seem slightly odd - I certainly would imagine they could get more workplaces involved if they had evening or weekend workshops that those people who want to run work events could attend!

However, that said, I will in all probability with one other take the traditional, annual, Ladies evening ride on Thursday 21st June (mid-summer's day this year) for the CTC.
