2005  ~ 7 July:
The First Ever Breakspear Cycle to School Day

       

Just after 8.15 a.m. and ready 
to greet the first bicycles.

Meanwhile in Swakeleys Park 
one of the 'Routes' forms...

 ...before setting off. One of the first to arrive, 199 to come!
Soon they started arriving
 in large numbers...
and handed over their cycles for safe storage during the day.

Kevin Malam 'en route' with the group that started from Swakeleys Park

A family arrive.

It's good that most drivers avoided Hoylake Crescent

We were lucky that the police helped.

Kevin Malam arrives after getting 80 or more through Swakeleys Park.

Meanwhile many of the Year 6 cyclists came on their own.

Some have to wait patiently A large number of Years 1 & 2 cycled. 
The children are all in; Kevin Malam, PC Jo Allan and Mr Rutter agree it's going well. 
The 'Team' pause for a photo. Finally, at the end of the day ...
... everyone left for a safe journey home.
