School Big Bike Rides During Bike Week 2007

This is something new and exciting for the children of two Coffs Harbour schools. For ten years Sawtell Public School has been running such an event and now their inspiration has led to plans for Toormina Public School and William Bayldon Public School to run their own BIG BIKE RIDES.

The children will ride from their schools along cycleways and footpaths to the Jetty foreshores area where they will have a BBQ and beach games and activities before returning by the same route to their schools. As well as providing a fun day for the children the schools involved will be able to teach road and bike safety around this event.

Tuesday 25th September is the date for the TPS ride and Thursday 27th September is the date for the WBPS ride. This is during Bike Week which is the last week of the public schools term 3.
The BUG is planning to assist the schools by providing volunteers at road crossing and other possible danger points. We need a lot of volunteers so if you would like to assist please phone John Gray on 66554898 or 0422333238 or talk to him on a bike ride sometime.
