Community Bikes Culter have a small fleet of bikes including an e-bike and e-cargo bike available for the community to borrow for free! As part of this initiative, they are running monthly social rides for anyone to join in on. These will be easy rides aimed at people who are new to cycling or looking to build their confidence or just looking for others to ride with. People can join the social rides using their own bike or request to borrow one from the fleet. The aim is for these rides to be monthly going forward on a Saturday towards the end of the month - please check the following page for updates
