YOUNG bikers are being invited to Chester’s Westminster Park from next Thursday for a series of BMX coaching sessions.

The free one-hour lessons begin from 5pm with qualified BMX coaches on site.

The sessions are aimed at children aged eight to 16 years old, and a limited number of bikes are available, although youngsters are advised to bring their own if they have one.

Helmets and gloves will be provided and protective equipment must be worn during the sessions.

For more information about the classes, contact Emma Brown on 01606 288259 or email sports@cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk.
