Book a bike service – select your drop off date
Select an available date below. Each bike requires a separate booking to allow time for each bike. Getting your bike to us at the start of the day enables us to get it back to you as quickly as possible.
- It would be great if you can drop your bike off in the morning – ideally between 9:00am and 10:00am
- If these drop-off times are not feasible for you, please let us know in the ‘additional information’ field on the booking form when you’ll be dropping your bike off; you can drop your bike off the day before if that’s easier for you – please do check our opening times before you visit.
