Bella's Ride - Green Bicycle Mystery

The route covers the events of that fateful evening 100 years ago when Bella Wright, a young Leicestershire woman who worked in the city, encountered a man on a green bicycle. What happened that evening was so significant that the unsolved case still retains its fascination. Bella lost her young life but you can see her ride again in our re-enactment which starts a few miles from Evington Park, at the very place where she was last seen alive on 5 July 1919. Bella rides again!
