The Public Health Agency is urging people across Northern Ireland to 'put wheels in motion' for their health and get back on their bicycles this bike week .
"This Bike Week the PHA would encourage as many people as possible, if they are able, to try cycling. It’s a fantastic way to get active as a family and with friends. Not only is it good for your health but by swapping some of your usual car journeys for cycling, it will be both kinder to the environment and, in today’s cost of living crisis, save you money on expensive fuel costs."
Whether it is a short trip to the shop, the school run or commuting work, the Active Travel Challenge encourages participants to switch up their usual routine and try walking, cycling or taking public transport as a cleaner, greener way to travel.
