Lend-a-bike project
This is an ongoing project to build reliable mountain bikes
that can be lent to people who want to ride but can’t justify the cost.
Nothing fancy. Just solid bikes that get ridden. Bikes can be lent on the rides we do every week. The most common bike trails we riding are:
Twisted Oaks;
Chicksands;
Stile Cop;
Forest of Dean;
Thetford Forest;
FlyUp
