Admirals Park is a great venue to host Pedal for The J’s, there is plenty for the whole family to do. In the park there is a children’s play area along with plenty of open space for a game of football, frisbee or just to run around. With a network of footpaths and cycleways linking the parkland with the surrounding areas, visitors can take a walk long the River Can which meanders its way through the park. In addition to all that’s on offer in the park there will be organised activities for the youngsters, we look forward to welcoming the whole family to the event.
