Get on your Bracknell bike and off to work!
Anyone cycling to work in Bracknell Forest during Bike Week could win a prize, courtesy of Bracknell Forest Borough Council.
Just by leaving the car at home between June 16-24 you could win your choice of either a family day ticket to Coral Reef, a round of golf for four at Downshire Golf Course or two passes for a Forest Spa treatment at Bracknell Leisure Centre.
To enter the Bracknell competition, visit the Council's website at www.bracknell-forest.gov.uk/env-bike-week.htm during Bike Week and submit details of your cycle journey to work. A winner will be chosen at random.
The Bike Roadshow is also returning to Bracknell town centre on Saturday, June 23, from 10.30am until 4pm, where shoppers can try out different types of bike, have their own bikes checked for free and collect cycle maps and tips.
According to the British Medical Association, cycling 20 miles a week can half the risk of a heart attack and regular cyclists are as fit as non-cyclists who are 10 years younger.
Cllr Mrs Mary Ballin, Executive Member for Planning and Transportation, said: "Cycling is a great way to get fit, help the environment and see the borough.
"As there are so many cycle routes through Bracknell Forest, why not try cycling to work during Bike Week and see how you get on."
