💜 Participation Sessions:
There are three different sessions to choose from — join the one that suits you best:

🚴‍♂️ Fast Cycle (9:00 – 9:30 am)
For experienced riders, adults and youth aged 15–17 years (with parental consent). Designed for confident cyclists who ride at a faster pace.

🚶‍♀️ Walk (9:45 – 10:45 am)
Open to all ages and abilities — perfect for families, friends and furry companions. The track is 2.5km long, so a full 5km walk will be two laps around. Dogs on leads are very welcome.
