Looking for events in Blackburn this week? You can find a range of activities, with a particular emphasis on cycling. This week features training sessions for cyclists of all levels, from beginners joining JETS development sessions at DISC, to performance training for experienced riders. Several opportunities are available to participate in cycling activities on June 8th and beyond. Beyond cycling, you’ll find opportunities to socialise and enjoy a pasta dinner following the Wednesday evening JETS development session. This week’s events take place across the town, easily reached by rail via Blackburn Station, or by road using the M65 motorway.

The schedule prioritises participation and offers something for all abilities. With events planned throughout the week, you are likely to find activities which suit your availability.
