Opportunity to try cycling at Bike 4 Life open day

Thu, 15 Jul 2021


People of all ages and abilities are invited to learn more about cycling at the National Sports Centre later this month.

The open day on Friday 30 July is part of Manx Sport and Recreation’s (MSR) Bike 4 Life scheme.

The free session will see qualified cycling instructors from MSR and the Isle of Man Constabulary’s Road Safety Team help people who are new to cycling, low on confidence or just want brush up their bike skills, in a safe and inclusive environment.

A range of mountain bikes, tandems and hand cycles will be available for those taking part and helmets can be provided for the session at the NSC raceway between 12pm – 3pm.

Instructors will put on a range of activities and challengers to make learning as fun and interactive as possible, and Cycle 360 staff will showcase a range of bikes and offer advice.

Dr Alex Allinson MHK, Minister for Education, Sport and Culture, said: ‘The Bike 4 Life scheme is a great way to learn a new skill, get more active and meet new people. You don’t need to be the next Mark Cavendish to get on one of these bikes and get the support you need to take up cycling.’
