A GATHERING geared at bringing cycling to everyone beckons in the heart of the Lakes with specially adapted wheels for riders with disabilities.
Showcasing the benefits of being mobile in the great outdoors, the Inclusive Cycling Festival is being staged at Brockhole, the Lake District Visitor Centre on the shores of Windermere, on Friday May 12, from 10am to 3pm.
Specially adapted cycles will cater for a wide range of abilities and people are being invited to roll up and have a go, while enjoying sensational scenery and beautiful grounds.
Local cycling and care organisations will have stands and displays. There will also be plenty of outdoor entertainment and fun for the whole family.
The event is led by Cycling Projects, the charity behind nationally recognised programme, Wheels for All. By using specially adapted cycles, it provides fun activities that are both physically and mentally stimulating for adults and children with disabilities and differing needs.
