Two Wheels: Two Weeks

DRD Travelwise NI is once again celebrating another successful ‘Two Wheels: Two Weeks’ initiative which saw cycling enthusiasts from across Northern Ireland ‘saddle up’ for two weeks of cycling celebrations from 18th to 26th June.

The ‘Two Wheels: Two Weeks’ initiative is developed and promoted by DRD Travelwise NI and is celebrated as part of National Bike Week, which takes place across the UK and Ireland. Designed to encourage the public to get on their bikes to enjoy the numerous health, financial and environmental benefits associated with cycling, the initiative also aims to encourage the public to incorporate more sustainable modes of transport into their daily lives whether it’s cycling to work, school, down to the shop or even just to get some exercise.

During the initiative Travelwise NI collaborated with local councils, employers, schools and cycling organisations to promote a wide variety of cycling events including; Schools’ Bike Day, After work Spinathon, Bike to Work Day and Pedal in the Park events in parks throughout Belfast.
