The Fox Valley Festival of Cycling will help to mark the launch of the new look Trek Store, which has undergone a complete refurbishment.  

 

Fox Valley is in the heart of some of the region’s best cycling routes for both road and mountain bike enthusiast and the centre hosted the final day of the Tour de Yorkshire in 2017. 

 

Trek Store Manager Andy Cook said: “We have got a great line up of events planned across the whole weekend and want it to be a real celebration of cycling. 

 

“We are so fortunate to have some great MTB trails and have the route of both the Tour de Yorkshire and the Tour de France Grande Depart on our doorstep here and we have some great activities, talks and special events for cyclists young and old. 

 

“We’ll also have a few ride outs planned for road and mountain bike enthusiasts throughout the weekend so we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone and making it a really special event.”

 

Claire Reynolds, Centre Manager at Fox Valley said: “We’re in a fantastic area for cycling and walking and the Trek team have planned a great weekend for the Fox Valley Festival of Cycling. Keep an eye on the Trek website and our own Fox Valley website for more details.”
