Cycle Together
Let’s Cycle Together
Cycle Together supports adults living in and around Frome to cycle more through a free programme of events. Taking part in Cycle Together will support you to feel more confident, to cycle more often and be more active. Take a look at the Cycle Together options below and choose a selection to suit you.
Cycle Together is part of the wider Lottery funded Green and Healthy Frome partnership which offers lots of support to make choices that are good for your health and the health of the planet.
Borrow an ebike
We have a selection of ebikes available to borrow for free through the Cycle Together scheme. This is a great opportunity to explore how an ebike can fit in with your routines, what benefits it will bring to your life and what to look for if you decide to buy one. The loan also includes a lock, lights, helmet, panniers and high vis clothing, everything you need to get started.
Click on the button below to book your space and choose an ebike. Once you have chosen your date and bike you will be asked to set up an account and pay a £20 refundable deposit which will be refunded on return of the ebike and accessories. Please only book once so that the ebikes can be made available to as many people as possible.
Adult Cycle Training
Build confidence cycling on roads with an Adult Cycle Training session taught by qualified National Standard Cycle Instructors. These classes improve confidence when cycling in traffic and build up from quiet roads to busier areas with more complex junctions. Cycle training offers something for everyone whether you’ve cycled for years or are completely new to cycling on roads. You can book a one off class focussing on the area you want to practice or build up through a number of progressive classes.
Group Bike Rides
Cycle through Frome’s beautiful countryside on a group ride. We’ll be following a variety of routes starting from Frome and suitable for a wide range of abilities. Each ride describes the distance, hills and most importantly cafe stops! So you can choose a ride to suit you.
Bike Maintenance Classes
Join a Bike Maintenance class to learn how to do simple repairs yourself including fixing punctures, changing brake blocks and sorting out those annoying clicking gears! Each class focusses on a particular skill so be sure to look out for the one for you – or sign up to a few classes and get the full set!
Dr Bike and Active Travel Information
We are running a series of events combining Dr Bike with an active travel information stall.
Dr Bike is an event where you can get a free safety check with our mechanic. Small repairs and adjustments are included where possible but if further work is required this will be highlighted and discussed so future repairs can be arranged.
The active travel information stall is an opportunity to explore information on local routes, maps and groups and a space to ask us anything active travel related! Wherever you are on your active travel journey we can help to answer your questions, share advice and signpost to useful links.
