@berniew0 Thanks for riding Bernie 🙂 Look forward to seeing you at the ride to fight MS in June!

@JoanH569 Thanks Joan I'm sure Matthew would be happy to hear it 🙂

@msqld Big shout out to Matthew P at Lutwyche MS centre who assists me with my exercise program each week. He’s highly professional & empathetic. His use of individual music play lists keeps us motivated & improves mood. Thanks 😊
