Students at Birkenhead Sixth Form College have taken part in a cycle tour of the Wirral as a way of celebrating National Bike Week
The route involved a trip along Wirral Way to Parkgate, tours along the riverside paths and a trip following the disused rail track of the Cheshire Lines.
Bike Week is designed to encourage people to get more out of their lives by taking up cycling and enjoying benefits such as improved fitness and the alternative mode of transport.
The trip was also used as an excuse to enjoy various activities across the peninsula.
Do cyclists need insurance?
According to research only 2 per cent of cyclists have adequate insurance. You may be covered on your household insurance policy, but read the small print. Spend a little time doing research before you buy cycle insurance as some providers offer much more for your money. Cycle insurance from the ETA includes new-for-old replacement, third party insurance (in the case of an accident you may need to seek compensation or even deal with a claim by someone else), personal accident cover and if you breakdown, they will even come out and recover you and your bike.
What is the ETA?
The ETA provides motorists and cyclists with green breakdown cover and green insurance products and campaigns for sustainable transport – when you buy our services below you help fund our charitable work.
