"We're teaching elderly people how to use London Cycle Hire"

Children naturally grab lots of attention. They’re new, they’re noisy, and they usually have a parent or parents with money to spend on them. Consequently, we hear a lot about getting children on bikes, and rightly so, for they will ideally have many years of cycling ahead of them. But with an aging population – there are now more over-60s than under-16s, fact fans – a huge chunk of the population is in danger of being overlooked.

Now, thanks to the London Cycle Campaign, the older potential cyclist is being catered for through the Agewell on Wheels initiative.
