LAST Saturday I was one of the many people who took part in the Christchurch Bike Week event.

I would just like to say a big thank you to all those people who gave up their time to organise and run this event. Escorting that number of cyclists around safely is no easy task but the marshals did a great job.

I think for many of us the ride from Two Rivers Meet Leisure Centre to Mudeford and back was not quite long enough, although it did include some interesting sections. As a family event it was great fun and I look forward to more of the same. Well done!
