Key worker Cycle Loans
We work with a variety of cycle hire businesses on the island to provide a short term cycle loan to employees through our key worker cycle scheme
If you need a helmet, a lock or any other accessories to keep you moving, we can also provide those to you as part of the loan.
There is no need for you to worry about the hassle of collecting the bike or returning it after you've finished with the bike, we'll deliver and collect island-wide!
