Cycle Skills Circuit launch event
Come and join us for the official opening of Chelmsford's new Cycle Skills Circuit in Tower Gardens in Chelmsford on Thursday 14 August.

We have transformed two tennis courts that were unfit for play into a safe space for children and families to learn valuable cycling skills.
Everyone is welcome to join us at this free event, where the Deputy Mayor of Chelmsford will officially open the exciting new facility.
