February is Bike Month and Sport Bay of Plenty recreation advisor Jen Riley is encouraging everyone to get on their bike and get active.

There is a range of cycle activities planned for the whole family this month, including a new addition for 2014: scavenger hunts.

Sport Bay of Plenty recreation advisor Jen Riley is encouraging everyone to get on their bike this Bike Month.

Wednesday this week is Go By Bike Day – an annual initiative aiming to get people cycling to work instead of driving.

Jen says anyone who needs to take part simply needs to get on their bike and ride to work.
