On Thursday’s 2014 Sue, our volunteer at Whittlesea U3A, will take you along bike paths to have a great morning of bike riding. Enjoy the outdoors while you exercise with fellow cyclists. All levels of experience can cope with this activity. Each week is a different ride and of course the stop to have a coffee is a must. Full safety bike riding equipment required, bring along water. This class will not go ahead if the temperature is over 30 degrees. If you are in doubt please ring the contact for bike-riding.
Check the calendar for more information.
Why is physical activity important…
It is good for the Mind! Reduces stress and anxiety and improve self confidence.
Whittlesea U3A always has a social aspect to physical activities.
Physical activity makes you look and feel better, gives you more energy, helps you sleep better and helps you relax.

Physical activity is good for our bodies and helps to control weight, blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes and reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke.
