Team members at South Lakes-based Volvo retailer, P V Dobson, are digging out their cycling shorts and dusting off their cycles for their annual Ride Like A Pro event this weekend.

On Saturday, September 15, from noon, P V Dobson in Levens is inviting local cycling enthusiasts to accompany the national league Wheelbase cycling team on a mammoth 56km journey around the Lake District.

The journey will encompass a variety of inclines, terrains and altitudes, so promises to be a challenging and enjoyable ride for keen cyclists. The event is set to be a fantastic family day out, with the encouragement of a professional cycling team and friends and family helping riders along every step of the way. One lucky participant will win a Volvo V60 for a weekend of their choice, as well as fun spot prizes along the way!

Chris Hammond, Retailer Principal at P V Dobson, said: “The team and I are very excited to be hosting our annual Ride Like A Pro event!

“There are a lot of budding cyclists in our team, and we’re really looking forward to having a ride in a relaxed, non-competitive atmosphere. It also gives us a great opportunity to take some time out to catch up with members of the community, and get some top tips from the professionals.

“Our Ride Like a Pro event is set to be a fantastic family day out, so bring the whole family along for support and get set for a great day!”
