As well as an opportunity to develop cycling skills, get bikes serviced and marked, and try out a range of different bicycles, visitors will be treated to high-flying BMX demonstrations and children will be able to have a go in the Action Wheels’ Fun Zone.
Adding a fun twist, local bike shop Outspoken Cycles will be using pedal power to create tasty smoothies, blow bubbles and race Scalextric.
Wintringham’s travel planning partner, smart journeys, will also be on hand with cycling and walking maps, lift sharing information and a pledge board, bus timetables, details of local incentives and initiatives, and freebies including bike lights and seat covers, to support active travel choices.
Pimp My Fish food truck and Perky Beans mobile barista will be serving a delicious range of dishes, beverages and cakes throughout the event.
Christine Littlewood, Community Development Lead for Wintringham, said: “Wintringham on Wheels is a fantastic event full of energy, fun and pedal power! Whether you’re a beginner, a family looking for fun outings together, or a serious athlete, cycling is a great way to get fit and stay active. This year, we’re also showcasing other options that support active and sustainable travel choices.”
Wintringham residents are also supported with a range of discounts and incentives to encourage active travel and help them lead healthy and low carbon lives.
