THORNHILL EVENTS
O
Tour de Thornhill
n The second Tour de Thornhill was held at the Central Park on Saturday,
29 July 2017! The event kicked off at 11h00 with the enthusiastic par-
ticipants arriving early to sort out their indemnity forms and check their
route. There were 3 routes according to age and was organised so that
each race took place at a different time, allowing everyone to be involved and
support the riders as they were leaving and crossing the finish line.
We started with the toddler route (age 5 and under) which was around central
park. They zipped around the park in no time and came racing over the finish
line to claim their participation medals and sweetie packs.
This was followed by the big kids ride (6 – 11 years) which had a slightly longer
route this year. Even with the extended route they finished in record time and
enjoyed their well-deserved refreshments. The tweens (12 – 15 years) did the
adult route this year. They said it was a tough long route but they thoroughly
enjoyed it. Once again we had very tight
finishes.
The cycle races concluded with the adult
route (16+ years). This was a route that went
almost all around the estate and was both
on and off road. There was a well-deserved
water table, set up by H2O Bedfordview, at
