Summer Competition - Favourite Places by Bike

Every year Spokes (the Lothian Cycle Campaign) runs a summer competition, open to everyone interested in cycling (all ages).

This year’s one has the theme "My Favourite Place by Bike" - which ties in nicely with WeansOnWheels' aim to put together a collection of nice rides for families and others to do (see the 'Routes' page).

For more details go to: www.spokes.org.uk/wordpress/2012/06/spokes-2012-competition/

Spokes wants to know where you love to go, or be at, or pass through, with your bike.   It must be somewhere or something you can do, visit or experience in Edinburgh or the Lothians.  It could be a downhill swoop, a picnic spot, somewhere with a lovely smell, a cafe, something unusual, maybe something more abstract, or doubtless loads of other things.

Great prizes! - including a ScotRail 1st-class return for 2 between any 2 Scottish stations;  and prizes from Edinburgh Bicycle,  Kalpna Indian Vegetarian Restaurant, Camera Obscura & World of Illusions, Scottish Seabird Centre, Sustrans, Peter’s Yard, Velo Ecosse, Reiss Hairsalon and [to be confirmed] the Bridge Inn at Ratho.  

The competition closes on 9 September so you’ve plenty time to work up a really excellent entry and win a top prize.    Details of how to enter and where to send entries are on the Spokes website.
