00:19 On behalf of Cycling Without Age Scotland,

00:22 came the chapter!

00:24 [cheering]

00:26 I'd like to thank you all for coming along.

00:29 Welcome to Christine Bell,

00:31 she's our CEO of Cycling Without Age Scotland.

00:35 We've got Christine, we've also got Rachel Stewart

00:39 from BBC Radio Scotland Outdoors Programme.

00:44 Again, she came to Inverurie last year and did a magnificent job,

00:48 so we couldn't do anybody else but having Rachel here.

00:53 So, the reason we've arrived today in Kemney is

00:57 we started in Inverurie last year and it took off in Inverurie.

01:01 I got invited to the Grove Care Home,

01:04 just along the road there, in August,

01:07 and we quickly found out that we really needed a tricycle in Kemney.

01:13 It shows today with you guys coming out here,

01:16 look at all the volunteers I've got for Kemney already,

01:19 it shows that there's a dedication in the community for us, and we need.

01:25 We needed to raise a lot of money to buy this tricycle,

01:29 without all the work from our dedicated team of volunteers,

01:35 we wouldn't have been able to get to this.

01:38 So let's put your big hand together for the volunteers!
