Keep Your Family’s Bikes Running for Less This Winter
Keeping a family’s bikes in good working order can sometimes feel expensive. Punctures, worn brakes and poorly adjusted gears can quickly take a bike off the road - but a little maintenance can prevent small problems from becoming costly repairs.
This winter, Cycle Circle is offering a series of free cycling events at Coachworks Ashford, Beerhall & Street Food to help you look after your bikes and build your confidence.
Free bike checks and minor repairs
Bring your bike to The Coachworks between 10am and 12 noon for a free safety check and help with minor repairs. It’s a useful opportunity to deal with those niggling problems you may have been putting off and make sure your bike is ready for winter riding.
Upcoming sessions will take place on:
Saturday 14 November 2026
Saturday 5 December 2026
Saturday 9 January 2027
Learn to fix your own bike
Our free Learn-to-Fix workshops run from 12.30pm to 2.30pm on the same dates.
These practical sessions will help you become more confident about maintaining your own bike. Developing a few basic repair skills can save money, help your bike last longer and make it easier to keep the whole family cycling.
The events are ideal for adults and accompanied teenagers. Booking is recommended bbr.cyclinguk.org/?cycle-circle-limited
If you have a question about the sessions or aren’t sure which one is right for you, email spencer@cyclecircle.co.uk.
Join our Christmas bike ride
We’re also getting into the festive spirit with a Christmas bike ride on Saturday 19 December 2026.
The ride will leave The Coachworks at 12 noon for a cheerful group cycle through the local area. Wear your favourite Christmas outfit, decorate your bike and come along to enjoy a festive ride with other local cyclists.
The route will be approximately 10 miles, so participants should be comfortable riding that distance. Booking is recommended bbr.cyclinguk.org/?cycle-circle-limited
All these events are free. Whether you want help getting your bike running smoothly, would like to learn how to make basic repairs yourself, or simply fancy a festive ride, we’d love to see you at The Coachworks this winter.
