What week is June 13-21? It's Bike Week! This is the biggest nationwide cycling event in the UK, helping you “get more out of life” - by getting on your bike and exploring your local community. 

  Bike Week is the UK's largest mass participation cycling event and provides an annual opportunity to promote cycling as a source of fitness and fun, not to mention an alternative form of transport.  As usual, Southampton will host many cycling events during and around Bike Week.
Highlights include:

FAMILY BIKE CAVALCADE
Saturday June 13, 10am at The Bargate, mainly on cycle routes and some on road.  Suitable for all abilities.  If parent/guardian is happy that children are competent on their own two wheels, they are more than welcome, as long as under 18 year olds are accompanied by an adult who is responsible for the child.  Decorate your bikes and yourselves if you wish!  Join with your picnic lunch afterwards.
Just turn up. More info from Southampton Cycling Campaign.

BIG BIKE CELEBRATION
Sunday June 14, 10am at Weston Shore, on National Cycle Route 2. The main attractions include the try-a-bike arena with The Company of Cyclists (this is great - it's how my family tried a trailer and tandem before buying ), mountain bike displays by M.A.D.  (Europe’s largest stunt/trials display team), a bicycle smoothie-maker, The Bike Doctor who can check your bike for free, led rides, cycle training and fun!  Just turn up.
