Sign up to the Little Bikers Challenge

Carmarthenshire County Council’s Sport and Leisure team are attempting to gain a record for the number of children riding balance and toddler bikes at any one time, and we need your help to do this! ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

We are looking for around 100 participants between the ages of 2 and 7 to enter our Little Bikers Challenge. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

It will be held on Sunday, March 20 at Pembrey Country Park, and we have teamed up with organiser of the UK’s only cycle beach race, Battle on the Beach, which takes place on the same day, to make this possible. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The fun race starts at 10am, so if your child is up for a challenge then please register their place here. All participants will receive a medal at the end of the race. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Following the event, there will be a selection of fun activities as well as the main Battle on the Beach race starting at 12noon, with over 750 riders taking part. It is likely that this unique event will attract media interest so your child may be filmed. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Both balance, toddle bikes and helmets will be provided on the day or participants can bring their own. The event is free and usual car parking charges apply. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Wouldn’t it be great if Carmarthenshire was the record holders of such an event! ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
