Leeds Opticians invite locals to saddle up

A local optical provider is offering locals in Leeds with a chance to get their hands on a top-of-the-range mountain bike in anticipation of this weekend’s major cycling event.

Staff at Specsavers on Albion Street will be inviting customers to take part in a survey until 31 July, when a winner will be selected at random to win a mountain bike.

Mark Richardson, store director of Specsavers at Leeds Albion Street, explains: ‘The arrival of the major cycling event into the region has spurred a lot of people to get back in the saddle, which is why it’s the perfect time to remind people about the importance of being cycle ready.

‘I’m sure all cyclists know the importance of conducting a spot check on their bike before they set off, but I’m not convinced they’d naturally consider the last time they had their hearing or eyes tested. It’s vitally important that cyclists are fully alert, both visually and from an audio point of view, to be able to deal with the dangers that present themselves while cycling.

‘We’ve chosen to specifically give our customers the chance of winning a mountain bike in order to encourage more locals to get on their bikes!’
