Students form Magh Ene College will complete a 5km Cycle in the local area to raise awareness around cycling among students. They will hold a session on Bike Maintenance and Safety prior to the Cycle, hosted by the Green Schools Travel Officer.
Royal Canal Greenway School Cycles are designed to encourage greater bike usage amongst secondary school students in a safe manner. These cycles also seek to promote the Royal Canal Greenway as an ideal cycling venue for participants.
Students will learn key cycling skills from Green Schools’ Aengus Kennedy before exploring their local national park by bike. This safe, supported experience builds confidence and road safety awareness. Parents can join to learn alongside their children, encouraging more cycling at home—especially for those without regular bike access or experience.
Bike Week is funded by the Department of Transport, coordinated by TFI and brought to you by the Local Authorities and Sport Partnerships.
