Family Cycling

Enjoying cycle activities in your family on Mothers Day (1st May) and on Family´s day (15th May), learn how to ride a bike and test your skills or compete with others.
On Mother's day (1th of May) and on Family's day (15th of May), the LIFE CYCLE team, together with a group of students from the secondary school (last year before university), organized a set of actions in the main park of Aveiro to promote the use of the bike within the family or as a group.
One of the actions was directed to young children who could not even ride a bicycle. Learn how to ride was their Mother's Day gift. Those who could stand on the bike and reach a reasonable level of independence received a diploma of encouragement. To motivate them, older children showed them the possibilities and potential of cycling. This initiative seamed to have pleased and encouraged younger children to experience riding alone. Furthermore, games for families to compete and show their agility on the bike were organised. During the two days, 31 families played in the garden, three children learned how to ride a bike.
