A CITY cycling charity is offering a range of services to encourage key workers back on their bikes.
Glasgow-based Bike For Good noticed around a 200% increase in cycling last year and to keep up this momentum, they are offering confidence building sessions, accessory loans as well as cycle training and road skills lessons. There will also be route planning exercises on offer with a trainer cycling alongside key workers at all times.

The charity has already supported around 120 key workers since the beginning of the pandemic. The first 50 to sign up to the new services will receive a free puncture repair kit.
The first 50 key workers to sign up for any of these services will receive a free puncture repair kit worth £20.
CEO Gregory Kinsman-Chauvet said: “We urge key workers to give cycling a try. We’ll help every key worker start or resume their cycling journey as best we can. We hope it’s not long before the lockdown rules allow us to extend this campaign to everyone.”
