(MENAFN- The Peninsula) Aspire Zone Foundation (AZF) is launching its new 'Family Cycling' scheme on National Sport Day.
The scheme can accommodate four or six members with four- and six-seat new bikes.
This is added to the 30 activities offered by Aspire Zone to various segments of society on the day to encourage them to practise physical activity in a distinctive recreational atmosphere.
Under the patronage of Minister of Youth and Sports H E Salah bin Ghanem bin Nasser Al Ali and the participation of AZF CEO Khalid Abdullah Al Sulaiteen, the launch event will be on Tuesday coinciding with National Sport Day.
"I would like to thank the Minister for his patronage and participation in the event," said Nasser Abdullah Al Hajri, a member of the National Sport Day Organising Committee in Aspire Zone.
"We are pleased to offer a variety of activities during the day and provide the community with an opportunity to ride bicycles as cycling is not only a great way to improve your fitness but also an enjoyable activity, especially when shared with family members and friends.
"The initiative is a continuation of programmes offered by Aspire Zone Foundation to deliver its message to the community, and provide all enabling requirements for hobbies that encourage exercise and physical activity as part of a healthy lifestyle," he added.
Cycle hire service is available normally from Sunday to Thursday from 4pm until 8pm, and on Friday and Saturday from noon to 8pm.
Earlier this year, Aspire Zone launched 'Learn to Ride' programme in cooperation with schools to help children and teenagers learn how to ride bikes and 'Cycle in Aspire' is the extension of the programme to encourage more people to ride bicycles.
