Well, I do find a revolving spinning wheel some comfort as it creates a nice breeze. I am trying to assemble enough folks for our Spin In The Grease all day clinic on August 14, but so far we haven't gotten the 6 we need. If you would like to come, please register by August 7. As long as you are fully vaccinated/boosted against Covid, and are testing negative before you walk in (free rapid tests available at the door), come and join in!
