"I always thought I would never be able to ride a bike" 🚲

Meet Zeeshan, a Primary 7 pupil in West Lothian we’ve reached through our I Bike Schools programme.

Zeeshan has a physical disability and dyspraxia, which have always stopped him from #cycling – until now.

We are saddened to hear of the collapse of the Garmouth Viaduct over the weekend, a key link on #NationalCycleNetwork Route 1.

Moray Council have advised the bridge will remain closed until further notice, and we urge the public not to approach the area for their own safety ⚠️

A stunning 234-mile long-distance bike route through Scotland’s breathtaking countryside.

You’ll pass lochs and mountains before ending in the capital of the Scottish Highlands, Inverness.
