Young people in Frome are being invited to dust off their helmets and get moving as the Lions Club of Frome prepares to host its annual ‘Ride Kids Ride’ event.
Taking place on Sunday 20th September from 12.30pm to 4.30pm at The Old Showfield on Rodden Road, the community event invites children to come along with family and friends to see how many laps they can complete in 30 minutes.
Participants are welcome to complete the challenge on bicycles, scooters or skateboards.
To cater for all ages and abilities, two courses will be available: a shorter lap around the football field for primary school-aged children and a longer lap covering the whole field, where four laps equal 5km, for middle school-aged children.
Every participant will be rewarded with a medal. In addition, each completed lap earns riders a ticket for a free raffle, with a chance to win a £200 voucher towards a new bike of their choice.
Entry is £2 per child. A BBQ and refreshments will be available on the day. Parking is provided nearby at Frome Football Club and Frome Medical Practice, with toilet facilities available courtesy of the Cricket Club.
