Durham City firm gets on board Durham Big Ride.

Whitfield Building Services have put their name to the Durham Big Ride after taking part last year!
Kevin Whitfield took part in the 25 mile ‘fun ride’ that takes riders out to the Northwest of the City and was bowled over with the organisation and the people taking part.
“We came along after hearing about the good time friends had doing the Durham Big Ride” Kevin said, “We were so impressed with everything that went on during the day that we made a decision to get more involved with a great community event in Durham City.  We always want to get involved with the City community and this is a fabulous opportunity to do just that”

Whitfield Building Services have decided to team up with the Little Ride, where the youngsters get the chance to ride around the parkland at County Hall while at the same time getting some cycle tips from Alan Kennedy from Durham County Council Road Safety Department.
Colin Wilkes, Event Director was more than pleased with the addition of another local business:  “More than anything else, the Durham Big Ride gives youngsters the opportunity to be involved with a mass participation event, something that doesn’t happen too often.  To have this recognised and supported by Whitfield Building Services is a great boost to us at Durham Big Ride.”
Durham Big Ride takes place on Sunday September 2 with 3, 10 and 25 mile routes.  The following week, the 50 mile Beast takes to the roads.  For more information log onto
