A former British Cycling coach is to help pupils from 12 schools get the best from their bikes thanks to funding from West Berkshire Council and NHS Berkshire West.
Andy Cook will be taking part in cycle training for groups of youngsters in the build up to the annual Wiggle MagnifiCat family cycling event at Newbury Racecourse. The pupils will learn to develop important skills for riding as well as having some fun on their bikes. The training will culminate in a series of inter-school events held at the Racecourse.
The Wiggle Magnificat takes place on Sunday 12 June and brings together experienced and club cyclists, leisure and community cyclists, school children and families to enjoy a great day on a bike.
There will be family and children's events which are open to everyone including: the KiddiCat 2.5 mile multi-lap challenge, the 'Go Ride' 0.5 mile grass track racing track and static bike time trial competition.
For the adults and keen cyclists there are three rides also taking place: the MagnifiCat (127 miles), the InterCat (81 miles) and the CommuniCat (51 miles).
