"We had a great time on the RIB ride on Sunday. We left from Moel Y Don at 5pm and the ride went as far as Beaumaris with stops along the way to take in places of interest. The ride started off quite gently to allow those of us who were a little nervous to get used to it. Before long we were racing along with the wind in our hair and enjoying every moment. On the return journey we stopped at Felinheli and did some 'turns' which were quite scary but very exhilarating. There were nine of us in the party which included myself, my daughter and her family and my grandchildren's friends and their child-minder, to celebrate her 40th birthday. The children were not the least bit nervous and found it really exciting. We all had a great time and thank you so much for making the opportunity possible." Mrs Lawson, July 2010
