Overview
The business will operate as a cycle hire outlet providing bikes and assisted bikes (E-bikes) for use by tourists and visitors to the area. This is a new addition to the area, adding to other tourism micro-enterprises. The addition of assisted bikes (E-bikes), has the added benefit of making the activity open to people of all abilities. Individuals or groups can also enjoy led rides, on roads and designated pathways. Future goals are to offer a larger variety of led rides, at different levels, and to offer a pick-up and drop off service for people who have no transport or limited transport facilities.
