We love seeing how far our RampUp riders come!

2 years ago, at one of our very first RampUps, Charlie hopped on a balance bike for the first time at only 2 years old.

Since then, Charlie has developed a love of bikes and cycling whilst gaining more confidence and skills on 2 wheels!

Now 2 years later, Charlie showed us just how far he's come on his bike.

Keep pedalling Charlie! Watching children build confidence and love riding is what RampUp is all about.

The Elsecar Greenway is perfect for a walk or cycle with family, friends, or just some alone time☀️

This small section is surrounded by nature and offers the chance to visit Elsecar Heritage Centre or RSPB Old Moor! The route can be extended by following the NCN 62 signs at the Dove Valley Trail junction.

Plan your route by picking up a cycle map at the Bike Works Hub or visit https://www.transpenninetrail.org.uk/cyclists/traffic-free-cycling/central/

The team distributed scooters to select schools across the borough at the start of this year.

Scooters were given to offer pupils an extra option for getting to school, or just to enjoy on the weekend. We spotted one at RampUp last week!

It's always great to see the scooters in action and being enjoyed🛴
