For Bike Week 2025 (May 10th to May 18th) Kilkenny Recreation & Sports Partnership with Sports Active Wexford and Wexford County Council invite all families to join us in the South East Greenway Family Cycle.

This event will take place on Saturday, May 17th, 2025 from the Rosbercon entrance to the South East Greenway. There will be two events on the day, both are geared towards family enjoyment of the South East Greenway. At 10am a family 12km cycle will start and this will be followed at 10.15 by a shorter 6km cycle. Both routes will have a ride leader and a tail sweeper. Participants will be asked not to overtake the ride leader. This is a leisurely, fun, family event, and is NOT A RACE.

The 12km event will go from Rosbercon to the furthest point on the South East Greenway (6km from Rosbercon at the Glenmore entrance to the Greenway) and return. The shorter 6km event will go to the 3km point (half way out) and return to Rosbercon from there. There will be volunteers on the route to help with everybody’s safety and guidance. Please show them courtesy.

Only those who are pre-registered will be given wristbands on the day. STRICTLY – NO REGISTRATIONS will be taken on the day. Registrations will allow access to refreshments after the event and a Bike Week 2025 certificate for all registered children who take part.

***IMPORTANT*** please read before you register!

PLEASE NOTE BEFORE YOU REGISTER: All participants must have a properly working bike for these events. This means that your bike must have brakes and gears that are WORKING PROPERLY. Your tyres must be CORRECTLY INFLATED (see side of tyres on your bike for this information). Please do not attend the South East Greenway Family Cycle 2025 with a bike that is not fit for cycling. Our mechanic is engaged to help with last minute breakdowns or emergencies and will not be on hand to conduct bike maintenance. Please have your bike in working order prior to attending on the day for the comfort and safety of all who are taking part.

ALL participants will be required to wear a helmet for the cycle at all times – no exceptions to this rule.

NOTE FOR PARENTS OF PARTICIPANTS: A ratio of 1 parent to 2 children is the maximum ratio that will be accepted. Parents/guardians have full responsibility for their children at all times and must not leave their child unattended or cycle onwards in the event without their child or both their children. This will make for a safe and enjoyable event for everybody.

We respectfully ask that all cyclists cycle slowly (this is not a race) on the left hand side both out and back. There will be other users on the South East Greenway on the day and we ask that you be mindful of this and afford them space and courtesy.
