South East Wales Regional Safe Cycling Championship Final 2008
This years Safe Cycling Championship was held on Saturday 12h July at County Hall Cwmbran.
As usual the event was a resounding success, with pupils representing all authorities taking part. The weather stayed relatively fine and all involved enjoyed themselves!
The overall winners were Emily Kate Batten from Monmouthshire in 1st place, Rhys Michael Cook from Blaenau Gwent in 2nd place and Sophie Arthur from Monmouthshire in 3rd place.
There were also prizes given to pupils from individual authorities, Best Maintained Bike and Highway Code. There were also team prizes awarded. The prizes were presented to the pupils by their local authority representatives who kindly attended to show their interest and support to this venture.
Members of Gwent Police also attended included Assistant Chief Inspector Andy Adams who presented the prizes for the Highway Code section of the competition and the Best Maintained bike prizes were presented by Dan Milosovic from Halfords.
Halfords generously donated the prizes for this section. So a big thankyou to them. The dedicated few turned up to marshal by performing the important tasks of scoring and keeping things going in an orderly fashion and the Road Safety Team from Capita Symonds were on-hand for directions and support.
The entertainment was supplied by Jugglestruck and the refreshments were supplied by Torfaen Catering services.
Well done to all involved!
