Dear BUGS & Clubs

 

As you may be aware, Bicycle Victoria has developed an 'Over 50s Riding 
Program'. The program is designed for people over 50 who are thinking of 
taking up or resuming riding.  Rides are lead by volunteer ride leaders 
with the assistance of ride leader buddies.

 

Rides are held in various locations across Melbourne. All rides are 
advertised on the Bicycle Victoria website and are prefaced by 'Over 
50s' (follow these links: Find a, Find a Community Ride)

 

To participate in the program, a bike and a helmet is required. There is 
no cost to be involved in the program.

 

The Over 50s Riding Program is designed to build riders' skills so that 
they have the confidence to progress to a BUG or club. If you know of 
anyone that is thinking of taking up riding or is keen to hit the saddle 
again, it would be appreciated if you could tell them about the Over 50s 
Riding Program.

 

Participants will need to register with Bicycle Victoria before joining 
a ride.  Joining a ride involves 3 easy steps:  register to participate 
in the program with Bicycle Victoria, choose a ride, and contact the 
ride leader direct.

 

Registration is available via the Bicycle Victoria website 
(www.bv.com.au/over50s) or by contacting Bicycle Victoria for a paper 
copy on 8636 8888.

 

Further information about the program can be found at www.bv.com.au or 
telephone 8636 8888.

 

Thank you in advance for promoting the Over 50s Riding Program and 
helping to get 'more people cycling more often'.

 

Kind regards
