THE final Burry Stander South Coast School Mountain Bike Series, which was launched for the first time on February 19, took place last Friday. Mandie Stander said that this event was introduced to teach schoolchildren to advance their cycling skills. “The park is the perfect place to learn as there are many different areas to hone your skills within the park,” she explained.
Many schoolchildren joined the next series and gained a world of knowledge on biking.
