The Criterium - Jersey Town Bike Race.

Thanks to the Constable Simon Crowcroft the 2013 Town Criterium was successfully run through the streets of St Helier once again.

All ages of cyclists were found pedaling a circuit of town. Guernsey, Jersey, the UK and France sported 14 teams to making this a truly international event.

On the back of Team Britain's claiming a hoard of gold medals in the 2012 Olympics cycling has really been adopted as the peoples sport. This was really evident by the large number of people who gave up a beautiful Sunday to watch lycra clad, well toned athletes hurtle past in a blur of colour.

Once again this just gives a flavour.

The Spirit of the Kites - Waterfront Marina Jersey

On a wet and windy Sunday the first Spirit of the Kites was created.

400 kite kits were created by Jason Maindonald and his crew.  
All recycled materials donated by Normans.

Over 200 people children and parents got to share in the joy of making something and seeing it fly. 

People of all ages got creative, shared time and smiles and got connected.

The Waterfront Marina came alive.

It was so much fun that we have decided to do it all over again. Keep watching...
