Why not get on your bike?
9:40pm Thursday 2nd October 2008 in
A NEW scheme to encourage people with mental health issues to get on their bikes will be launched on Monday.
To mark the start of World Mental Health Week, CTC’s Cycle Champions Project in Swindon is launching Windswept On Wheels, which aims to encourage anyone with mental health issues to experience cycling first hand.
Tamina Oliver, CTC’s cycle champions officer in Swindon, said: ”Cycling is good for you, in all sorts of ways: it gets your heart and lungs going and keeps your body healthy.”
The launch takes place at the County Ground Athletics Track, between 11am and 12.30pm. Visit www.ctc.org.uk.

But I won't because that would be really bad and insensitive of me.
Out evil thoughts! Out!
