15th – 19th May Dingle Cycles to Work & School

Everyone on the Dingle peninsula are being
asked to try and use a bike for at least
some part of their trip to work. It’s
strange but true that the more bikes on
the road, the safer cycling becomes.
Primary schools are encouraging pupils
to do so, and their parents might also
come along. This will culminate in a
Cycle Bus from Dingle Hospital at 8.40am
on the final day, Friday 19th May.

Suitable for All
