The centre has been upgraded significantly in the town in the past year.

Centre chairperson Jacinta Young gave the group a tour on Friday, January 17 and encouraged members to try out the equipment.

After much encouragement 89-year-old Billy Spiers climbed aboard and pedalled an exercise bike at her encouragement.

Volunteer Anne Siviour said that proved you were never too old to ride a bike.

Following the tour members went to Lock School Community Library where they enjoyed a catch up and a birthday cake.

Anne said the group had a tradition of a birthday cake to celebrate all members’ birthdays at a January function each year, rather than when each occurred.
