Bike trailer gifted to Guernsey cycling initiative

The charity Wheels For You and their adapted bikes

The cycling charity Only Fools and Donkeys has given a new bike trailer to the adapted cycling initiative, Wheels For You.

Wheels For You is a Guernsey initiative that uses adapted bikes to bring the joy and liberty of cycling to those who cannot ride a traditional bike.

It operates from three venues, Les Beaucamps School, Beau Sejour and the Track at Victoria Avenue.

Yesterday, at a special Parkinson's Guernsey event, the charity was presented with a bike trailer to transport the adapted bikes to the venues, sponsored by Butterfield.

The trailer, and two adapted bikes, were gifted by the cycling charity Only Fools and Donkeys.

It raises money through large group bike rides in Europe.

This year, the ride goes east towards the Netherlands and takes in a section of the infamous Roubaix cobbles, that form part of the Paris - Roubaix one day classic race.

The Parkinson's Guernsey event showcased the help available for those with the disease.
