A festival of bikes is raising money for charity at Ashburton’s River Dart Country Park on March 30, and tickets are available now.
Dartmoor Bike Fest will include workshops, challenges, advice, retail stalls, displays, safety checks, competitions and a chance to meet a world champion cyclist.
A spokesman for the event said: ‘We’ll be celebrating all aspects of cycling with a day full of exciting activities at the picturesque River Dart Country Park.
‘This is the perfect event for children to come and try different types of cycling under the watchful eye of British Cycling coaches and members of various South West racing teams.
‘It’s a great chance for kids to try all types of cycling including BMX, cycle cross, road and mountain biking, with opportunities to join in with fun mini races and fastest lap competitions.
‘Did you get a new bike for Christmas? Come and get some expert tips from one of our coaches and ride it on our trails or even the pump track.’
The event will include cyclists from British Cycling; Mid Devon Cycling Club; Decoy BMX Club; and Pilgrim Flyers Racing Team.
There’ll be a charge per car, which includes a donation to the charity Julian House.
Julian House works with socially excluded and homeless people in and around Teignbridge and across the South West. Their social enterprise project, Exeter Bike Workshop, works with clients to learn how to become a bike mechanic as well as building skills to help move onto independent and sustainable living.
Dartmoor Bike Fest is open from 10am to 5pm.
