PLEASE NOTE THAT WE SHALL BE CLOSED ON CHRISTMAS DAY & BOXING DAY 2025<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

There are two ways to book a ride:<\/span><\/p>\n

1>\u00a0\u00a0 Call our office <\/strong><\/span>on 020 8979 6061.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span>The office is normally staffed between 10am and 1pm every day of the week <\/span>except Thursdays<\/span>. If calling outside these hours then please leave a voice-mail – specifying a contact number for us to respond to – and we will get back to you as soon as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

2>\u00a0 Email us<\/strong> using our\u00a0Bookings email<\/a>\u00a0– specifying a contact phone number for us to respond to.<\/span><\/p>\n

We strongly recommend that\u00a0all rides should be booked in advance<\/strong>. This avoids disappointment as you may otherwise arrive to find that someone is already using the cycle that best suits your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please note that we charge \u00a32.00 for the use of each of the special needs bikes. We don\u2019t charge for accompanying parents or carers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please also note that we need the bikes to be returned at the pre-arranged time, so if you arrive late, we ask you to please honour the finishing time that you booked.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you haven’t ridden with us before then it is worth visiting the ‘our cycles<\/a>‘ page to get an idea of which style of bike might be best suited to your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you would like to try out the bikes, then call us on the above number and we will arrange a mutually convenient time when you can come and meet us and have a look at the cycles and maybe have a trial ride.<\/span><\/p>\n

We are happy to take bookings from groups of riders, for example from special needs schools, care homes or day centres. \u00a0Click here to find out more about group rides.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

These run on Monday to Friday (except Thursday<\/span>) , and are available between 10:00 and 13:00 and sessions normally last for 1 hour, but please remember that all rides should be booked in advance. However we can often fit in a last minute booking so it is always worth a try, but please call us first.<\/span><\/p>\n
