Ian Wilkinson has a number of copies of "A History of Manchester Wheelers' Club 1883-1983" for sale.
The book was compiled by Tommy Barlow and Jack Fletcher and published to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the founding of the club.
It charts the rise of Manchester Wheelers' from its beginnings in Hulme, through the war years and the Reg Harris era, to the heady days of success during the 1980's.
The book is 230 pages long and contains many superb photographs of the Wheelers' riders of the day.
The history is well worth a read and will be of interest to members and non-members alike. If you would like to purchase a copy, please contact .
The cost is £5 if you are a member and £10 (plus postage) to non-members.
An absolute bargain!

RSS feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content, without having to visit the websites you have taken the feed from.
To access RSS feeds, the first thing you need is something called a news reader. This is a piece of software that checks RSS feeds and lets you read any new articles that have been added to them. There are many different versions, some of which are accessed using a browser, and some of which are downloadable applications. Browser-based news readers let you catch up with your RSS feed subscriptions from any computer, whereas downloadable applications let you store them on your main computer, in the same way that you either download your e-mail using Outlook, or keep it on a web-based service like Hotmail.
