The fourth annual ‘Big Ride’ cycling event will pedal off this afternoon from 16:00hrs.
The event will commence at the University of Guyana public road and will end at the Carifesta Sports Complex.
The ‘Big Ride’ which is an initiative of the Ministry of Health in collaboration with the Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) will help to encourage and promote physical activity and a positive lifestyle as well as increase awareness about HIV/AIDS among the participants and the general public.
In the past the ‘Big Ride’ has attracted around 1000 riders and organizers of the event are hoping to attract more participants this afternoon.
Persons of all ages with a bicycle are encouraged to participate.
