Bike Doctor Clinics on the Prom

We are encouraging communities to brush off their bikes and get cycling by offering free “Bike Doctor” clinics in Grange-over-Sands and Arnside this week.

The two free events will be held on Saturday 20th July, on Grange-over-Sands Promenade, and Sunday 21st July on Arnside Promenade.

As part of the Ways Around The Bay initiative, the charity is working with the Bike Doctor to deliver free bike health checks and basic repairs, to enable people to experience all the joy and health benefits that cycling brings.

The Bike Doctor sessions offer a local qualified bike mechanic who will be on hand to carry out minor repairs including replacing standard brake pads and nuts and bolts, gear and brake cable replacement and puncture repair – all completely free of charge. The mechanic will safety check the bike and recommend local bike shops for any further repair, and offer general advice on cycling. There's no need to pre-register, people can simply turn-up with their bike and complete a short paper form. Everyone is welcome but under 18's must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

The events form part of Ways Around The Bay, a programme which aims to establish Morecambe Bay as a centre for walking, cycling and exploring the Bay in low carbon ways. The initiative is creating more inclusive access, so everyone can enjoy the Bay’s inspiring landscapes, nature, history and culture. The programme is funded by the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government (Coastal Communities Fund) via Westmorland and Furness Council.
