10am to 12pm – Bike Orienteering in and around Musselburgh Coastal Area with Venturing Out CIC – Session 1 (10 places)
Come and take part in some orienteering based challenges whilst exploring the local area by bike! You can take part as a led group, or you may choose to grab a map and do this on your own! For this session, you need to be familiar with riding a bike. It will not be a fast pace and there will be plenty of stops.
10am to 12pm – Come and Try Session with Angie from Cycling UK (6 places)
If you are looking to get back on a bike after a long break or build up confidence, this session is for you. Angie will lead a ride which will give tips such as using gears, or route planning. This will be a gentle ride that will be at a comfortable pace for the slowest rider. There will be the opportunity to ask questions along the way. You won’t be cycling for 2 hours solid – there will be lots of stops to take in the views.
