Bike week 2009

From 13 - 21 June Travelchoice helped the residents of Peterborough celebrate National Bike Week with a selection of competitions and events.

The week began with two successful guided rides to the Cygnet Park and Thorpewood Business Parks highlighting the variety of routes available to people wanting to commute to work by bicycle. Events also included come and try sessions at the Peterborough Phantoms BMX Club and road-racing with the Peterborough Cycling Club at the Showground.

However, the favourite event of the week was undoubtedly the free cyclist’s breakfast held at the Cornish Pasty Company in the city-centre, where cyclists could enjoy a bite to eat, talk about their favourite routes and generally have a good time with fellow cyclists.

The week culminated with the Travelchoice Treasure Hunt held at Ferry Meadows Country Park – where families cycled around the Park answering questions and finding clues. Congratulations to the Lilley and Honeyford families who were the eventual winners.

Please look out for more cycling events throughout the year and Bike Week 2010.
