YOUNG people in Mottingham have been treated to a new bike track.

The Castlecombe Youth Centre launched the track, funded by Bromley Council, at Foxes Field in Lower Marvels Wood on Friday.

Youngsters enjoyed a wide range of activities at the opening including a performance by a cycling display team as well as lessons in cycle awareness and maintenance.

Portfolio holder for children and young people Councillor Ernest Noad said: “This is a welcome resource for young people in and around Mottingham.

“It is a testament to the young people who have worked together with Bromley Council to make it happen.”
