Join our Bike, Walk, Move activity day this Easter

We’re launching our Bike, Walk, Move project at a spring-themed activity day on Saturday 15th April. This free event takes place from 10am – 12 noon at our community building at 8 East Fergus Place.

Activities include an Easter-themed cycle ride, a guided walk around Beveridge Park, a Dr Bike stall, refreshments and an Easter Egg hunt. Booking is essential for the cycle ride and guided walk.

All other activities are running throughout the morning. People can bring their bikes along for a free spring check up to get ready for the cycling season ahead.

“Getting around using active travel can help you stay fit and healthy. It’s also a very environmentally friendly way to get around, compared to driving.”

Craig Leitch, Senior Development Worker says: “We’re excited to be launching another year of led-cycle rides and training, maintenance classes and Dr Bike events. This year walking is part of our programme too, so we will be organising regular walks for the local community.

“We’d love lots of people to come and join us at the launch of our programme to enjoy some Easter-themed activities. Coming along and getting involved is a great way to discover the benefits of cycling, walking and wheeling.

Greener Kirkcaldy aims to encourage people to drive less and cycle and walk more by demonstrating local cycle and walking routes. We have developed a Kirkcaldy walking guide and cycling map to share local routes. We also help people meet other cyclists and walkers, and give them the skills and confidence to get out by bike or foot.

Bike, Walk, Move activities are free to attend thanks to funding from Paths For All’s Smarter Choices Smarter Places programme.
