National Bike Week is one of the key things that BCAG does
each year, with much valued support from various local organisations,
including Bradford Council. And any volunteers to help with events are
very welcome. There are lots of things that have been done - bike rides
around and within Bradford, fun events, Doctor Bike, bike to work events
(with free breakfasts for those cycling in to work) and lots of other
things. If you'd like to help organise, get in touch with anyone on the
BCAG committee (e.g. Pete).But....
most importantly, come along and enjoy yourself!!
