Keep an eye out for more people cycling this summer 🚲

Don't forget to leave at least 1.5 metres of space when overtaking them and to give more space at higher speeds!

Let’s keep each other safe, https://t.co/hXWxdJTmX6

Without safe cycling infrastructure, #CycleToSchoolWeek will struggle to achieve lasting change. We’re calling on the government to invest in protected cycle lanes on main roads to schools so that all children feel welcome and safe on their commute.

#CycleToSchoolWeek Day 3 🚲

Cycling 2 abreast (side by side) with children/inexperienced riders can help keep them safer on the roads.

Remember to be aware of people driving and allow them to overtake (for example, by moving into single file or stopping) when safe to do so.

[VisitSeftonWestLancs @VisitSefWLancs]

Please note that our cycle hire shop in Southport is now reverting to its winter opening hours. This means that we will now be closed on a Sunday. All other days remain the same https://t.co/LYjBzr6RuT
