Electric Bikes

In 2015 CEA secured grant funding to allow us to buy two decent electric bikes and a metal storage shed for them – the one next to Walpole Pavilion. When they are 'at home' the batteries are recharged using solar power. If you live locally, you can borrow these bikes, free of charge. If you are visiting the area, you can hire them for a modest fee. Over the years people have borrowed the bikes for a variety of different reasons:

 

  • To use instead of their cars, for a period, to reduce their carbon footprint

  • To try out, with a view to buying one of their own

  • As part of a rehabilitation programme, following major accidents or surgery

  • To get about while their car is off the road

  • For pleasure and gentle exercise

 

If you would like to borrow or hire a bike(s), please contact Zoe Mair on 01986 784217 or Simon Weeks on 01986 784348
