Sunday 12 February 2012 - Cycling and Tree Planting
The Forest of Marston Vale together with Bedford Borough Council would like to invite you to take part in a friendly leisure cycle ride coupled with a spot of tree planting. The newly named wood (Octagon Wood) sits on National Cycle Route 51 just outside of Willington, Bedford.
On Sunday 12th February at 10.45am there will be a guided ride leaving from Priory Country Park visitors centre, travelling along NCN R51 directly to the site. The ride is approximately 1 mile and is mainly flat so suitable for all the family. The tree planting event will take place between 11am and 3pm.
For further information and contact details please see the Marston Vale website.

Where? At your school.

Once again, every trip to school by bike will count towards a 'virtual' stage race around the UK and there will be prizes for the winners in a number of categories.
