Runway Cycling 2005

Dark clouds were threatening to rain at the 10th anniversary of the annual Runway Cycling (and skating) this year, but that didn't stop over a thousand cyclists and skaters from turning up at the flag off point this Sunday morning.

It was an exciting flag off as cyclists and skaters both enjoyed the freedom of skating on the airport runway. Despite the sudden downpour in the morning, there was a general festive atmosphere that remained throughout the day as the weather cleared out and both cyclists and skaters took to skating on the runway again!

Having a great time at the Runway Cycling!
