The cost of trying cycling can be off-putting, especially if you don’t know whether cycling will meet your daily travel needs.

CycleBoost offers Sheffield residents the chance to try cycling for four weeks for free. It’s a great way to give it a go without having to lay out lots of cash. We also lend you a full range of cycling accessories with the bike so you should have everything you need to see if cycling is for you. 

You can choose to loan either an electric bike (to help with those Sheffield hills!) or a regular bike.
There is no charge for loaning the bike, however we do ask for a £25 security deposit which is refunded upon return of the bike. Find out more: Free Bike Loans – CycleBoost

Learn to ride - we offer free training sessions to teach adults to cycle. We provide the opportunity for adults to be taught from scratch to be confident cyclists. Our trained instructors will work at your own pace to teach you how to cycle safely and with fun. We provide the bikes, a traffic-free space, enthusiasm and knowledge.
