Katie Archibald visits Glasgow cycling charity
'It is special to see': Katie Archibald on Glasgow cycling charity
The 29-year-old, who was brought up in Milngavie, was part of the 2016 Great Britain team that were champions in the women's pursuit event, as well as securing the silver medal in Tokyo in 2020. Katie went on to add how vital the funding from the National Lottery is to Free Wheel North in Glasgow as it looks to provide an opportunity for anyone from every background to cycle."Everyone here has had a chance to ride a bike.
The charity has gone from a niche activity for disabled cyclists in 2011 to a thriving village of pedal power in 2023 thanks to nearly £350,000 of National Lottery funding.
