Starting from the warmth of The Dynamo in Putney, we ventured out as a group onto the roads of London to celebrate our very first birthday. Friends, colleagues and new faces all gathered to take in the sights and get to know one another. The original route would have seen us taking in the sights of Barnes, Richmond Park, Ham and Kingston upon Thames. However, the British summer weather put a stop to that. We decided it was best to do a traditional lap of Richmond Park and then head back to the cafe for shelter. Which is exactly what we did.

Once back at The Dynamo, we shared pizza, beer and laughs. We all know what it's like - once put into that situation together, it brings everyone that much closer. So maybe the rain wasn’t so bad after all.

Thank you to everyone that came along and for getting wet with us, we can’t wait to see you all again soon.
