Malta Independent Saturday, 29 May 2010, 00:00 Last update: about 17 years ago

The Kunsill Malti għall-iSport (KMS) in collaboration with the Malta Cycling Federation (MCF) will be organising the final bike ride before summer hits in, tomorrow starting at 10.30 a.m.

The bike ride will start from Bahar Ic-Caghaq, Coast Road (picnic area near the Coastline Hotel) and will finish in St Julians (car park area near Police Station/McDonalds). The route will take riders along the coast road heading towards St. Andrews/Pembroke and on towards St Julians. A

pick up point for younger riders will be set up at the road entrance of the ex-White Rocks Complex, St. Andrews; youngsters wishing to participate from this point should be present by 10.45am to join the main group. Another pick up point will be set up for the ‘Girls on the Move’ programme (and anyone else) at Luxol Car Park and should be present by 11am. The bike ride should finish around 11.30am.

As the routes are not circular riders will, however, have to make arrangements in advance to get back to their own car; or those parents whose children are taking part can pick up their child at the finishing point.

Full safety measures are taken during these bike rides. All cyclists are required to wear a helmet and stay with the group; apart from a lead car there are also back up teams, traffic police and an ambulance on standby following the group just in case.

Those interested in participating are either to get their own bike and helmet or can make use of the bikes made available by the KMS against no payment. Through this bike ride, which forms part of the ‘KMS - Sports For All – Cycling’ campaign, the KMS continues its endeavor to provide opportunities to encourage and enhance sport participation among all members of society.
