Peterborough GreenUp’s Lindsay Stroud says little riders who come out on Bike Night often make great progress within the first hour.

“You see their control and their handling really improve, and also their desire to try something new,” she said.

For the grown-ups, there are cycling maintenance clinics and skills courses. There are also bike movie nights, family fun nights and rides around the city.
