Summer of cycling
This July and August, Barnsley Bike Works will be traveling the borough to get Barnsley ready to cycle into the summer. Barnsley Bike Works will be offering free bike checks, advice on cycling, maintenance tips and information on other ways Barnsley Bike Works can get you cycling. Visit a summer cycling session, take part in a 'back to cycling' cycle confidence session for adults, pick up some maintenance tips and advice or tell us your favourite Barnsley cycling routes:
- Already cycle? Get your bike checked and come along to a Bike Works cycle fest.
- Get some maintenance tips from one of the friendly Barnsley Bike Works mechanics.
- Brush up your confidence with a 'back to cycling' confidence session.
- Try one of the Barnsley Bike Works E Bike fleet and find out how an E bike makes cycling easy! You can also sign up to borrow one for free for a month.
- Got an unused or old bike? Bring it to a Bike Works session and donate it to the Barnsley big bike recycle scheme.
- Take part in some fun challenges to test your cycling skills and knowledge.
Summer cycling sessions
These sessions are free and include bike checks, fix it sessions, advice on routes in the area and fun challenges, including cycle obstacle courses and fastest tyre changes. Find out about the Bike Works E bike fleet and E bike loan scheme, and have a go on an E bike on our course.
