On Saturday 20th June we will have a real bike expert from Dunbar Bike Hub in the village to help us sort out any mechanical problems before we take to the road.
Come along to the village hall at 2 pm, bring your bike and learn how to do some basic maintenance.
Ice-cream cones will be for sale and we’re hoping to muster as many cyclists as we can for a mass ride along the Champs Elysees of Garvald at 4 pm.
