Cycles

6,000 cycles

We're designing the cycles to be as easy to use as possible. You'll be able to adjust the seat and they'll probably have a basket.

We won't be providing helmets as it's up to you whether you wear one.

Repairs

We'll regularly check all bicycles. We'll repair any sick bicycles and will replace them whilst they're out of action.

Theft and vandalism

The bicycles will stand out as Cycle Hire bicycles. That way we hope people will think twice about stealing or damaging them.

The docking stations will be very secure and likely to have CCTV.

Safety and training

You should cycle as safely on a Cycle Hire bicycle as you would on any other.

To boost your confidence, take a look at our safety and training pages.

One of the joys of my ride home is the way you reconnect with the seasons.
