So far, the response to the request for bike donations has been amazing and we have already received 25 bikes, taking us halfway towards our target of 50 bikes. The team are extremely grateful and would like to say a huge thank you to anyone who has been generous enough to donate a bike or a spare wheel or two to support the bike trail initiative.
The donated bikes and their parts will be dusted off, spruced up and painted lime green as the town creates a vibrant bike trail to promote the Tour of Britain in an initiative supported by Cheltenham Business Improvement District (BID). It will all add to the festival feel on Saturday 9th September for the Cheltenham Festival of Cycling! The bike trail initiative, organised by the council and supported by the BID, will see online maps published at cheltenhamcyclingfestival.org.uk so visitors can complete the trail.
We still haven’t reached our target yet and we still need residents to support us to make the bike trail a success. So if you have a bike of any size lying around please drop it off to us here at The Bicycle Hub. We're located at 278 Gloucester Road next to the Cheltenham Railway Station and we are open between 10am – 5pm Tuesday to Sunday.
