Part 2 – Guest Speaker Paul McKay on Cycling from Brunswick to Coburg (7.45 pm)
Paul will tell us of his epic week long pedal from Brunswick to Coburg. He will bring along his full size folding Montague and the worlds biggest pannier that he used – the Arkel-tt84 (as in 84 liters – that’s more the twice the puny 40 liters of an Ortlieb back roller). You’ll meet characters such as Caroline of Brunswick, Alfred of Saxe Coburg (‘Affie’ to his mates) and Queen Adelaide and learn how German the Royal Family of the House of Coburg-Saxe and Gotha is (renamed Windsor after the Great War). And you will learn how it was that Coburg and Brunswick got their names and how King Edward VII was 31/32ths German. Oh and you might have guessed that there was no Upfield Bikeway.
