“Bike Week is a wonderful initiative that highlights the importance of cycling for both our health and the environment. I encourage everyone to participate and experience the beauty of Sligo on two wheels”.
The week-long celebration highlights the numerous benefits of cycling, including improved physical health, reduced carbon emissions, and enhanced community connections. It also encourages individuals who haven't cycled in a long time to get back in the saddle or those who have never cycled before, to discover the simple pleasure of cycling.
It’s a fantastic opportunity to dust off your bike, learn new skills, and have some fun. Join us in celebrating National Bike Week 2025! Get back into the saddle, participate in our events, and experience the joy and benefits of cycling.
