The annual effort to find cyclists, walkers and ‘sitters’ to help raise money for Nottinghamshire’s old churches and chapels is under way.
The annual Sponsored Ride and Stride, organised by the Nottinghamshire Historic Churches Trust, takes place on Saturday, September 11, 2010, between 10am and 6pm and more than 250 churches and chapels of all denominations will take part in the effort.

The new Secure Bike Compound at Nottingham Station, developed by Nottingham City Council, East Midlands Trains and Network Rail was opened on Wednesday 21 July.
Below are some photos taken on that occasion by Ioan Reed-Aspley of the City Council.

The physical activity challenge that gets your staff and your business involved!

Run since 1984 by Nottinghamshire County Council, this annual programme of short and middle distance rides was started by Pedals in 1983 to encourage more people into the saddle.

With the current cutbacks in County Council spending they have decided to stop running the Rural Rides programme from 2011 and Pedals has been working hard to encourage Ridewise to take on future coordination. This change now seems likely to go ahead, we are very pleased to report, and we intend to continue to play a crucial role in devising routes and leading rides.
