Free Bike Rides
Lichfield District Council, Freedom Cycles and Jigsaw were proud to launch this year’s programme of Cycle Rides for All on Sunday 1 April 2012.
Twenty-five people got on their bikes and joined the 12-mile cycle ride to Fradley Junction and back again.
Cycle leaders led the group on a gentle ride through the village of Fradley, then onto Fradley Junction for a stop at the café and nature reserve by the canal.
Appropriate for all ages and abilities, the next outing in the series is a 9-mile ride on 6 May to Whittington.
To join the rides, just bring your bicycle, safety helmet, a picnic and yourself to Freedom Cycles in Lichfield at 10am on the first Sunday of the month. Children under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.
