Even if you own a bike of your own, bringing it on holiday or in the car on a long journey can be a pain.

Bike hire is a great way to relieve the stress of transporting your own bike or to try out cycling without making the commitment of buying a bike.

Most cycle hire centres also hire equipment for children such as tag-along bikes and trailers for young children.

You can look up bike hire facilities across the region using our Adventure Cycle Map. If you own a cycle hire business you can list yourself using the ‘Suggest a Facility’ function on the map.
