PARALYMPIC gold medallist Andy Lewis is hoping to get more people in the saddle at an open day this weekend.

The triathlete is also hoping the event at Severn Valley Cycles in Hill Street, Lydney on Saturday (March 25) will increase awareness of the cycle trail from Parkend to Lydney.

Andy said:?“I would like to encourage more people to get active and especially to get on their bikes. I will be happy to support and give local people advice.

“Severn Valley Cycles have supported me since day one and I have just committed to sign up with me for Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games.”
