About 80 people started their day with a bacon buttie and a smoothie made by a pedal-powered blender at the Roys Bay Recreational Reserve, to mark the start of the festival which is aimed at encouraging people to cycle or walk instead of driving during November.
Bike'vember "passports'' were also issued which will be stamped when people attend an event during the festival.
