Initially we have reopened for cycle hire by online bookings only. Bookings on the day are possible using your smart phone, although this is subject to availability. Bikes and equipment are cleaned, safety checked, then handed over outside the centre in the fresh air at the pre-booked date and time. For bike sales or repairs please email using our contact form to book an appointment. Only one customer may enter the centre at a time. Payment by card only.
Although the centre is temporarily closed due to coronavirus, we’ve been busy painting, refurbishing and deep cleaning ready for reopening, hopefully soon! Stay safe and we hope to see you in the near future.
Following the recent government guidelines we have made the tough decision to temporarily close the cycle hire centre. The is for the safety of customers, staff and to help reduce the spread of coronavirus. Please note, this is just a temporary measure and we look forward to reopening the centre again at a future date. Please contact us by email if you have any queries or if would like to rearrange a booking. Stay safe and we wish you all the best during these challenging times.
