Hastings is gearing up for the traditional May Day bank holiday bike run tomorrow, 1 May. Although the formal ‘Bike1066’ event is not taking place, the town is eagerly anticipating the arrival of bikers for the annual celebration. To accommodate the influx of bikers, bike parking will be provided in Pelham Place car park on the seafront and the Stade open space in the Old Town.

However, Hastings Borough Council is reminding bikers to park their bikes in the designated parking areas and not on the road or pavements. The council has expressed concern over potential obstructions and delays for emergency vehicles due to past incidents where vehicles struggled to navigate the seafront and wheelchairs/pushchairs found it difficult to pass bikes on the pavement.
