CYCLING SUPERHIGHWAY LAUNCH!
Cycle Systems has been selected to provide cycle maintenance and national standards cycle training to employees of companies and organisations along the Mayor’s new Cycling Superhighways, which were launched today in Clapham Common.
We were there at the launch event with our distinctive green freight bikes and our mechanics had queues of people hoping to get their bike checked out on their commute from 7am this morning. (July 19th 2010)
“We are very excited to be working with TfL on this groundbreaking project” said Sean lally, director of Cycle Systems, who donned his “Cycle Skills” instructor tabard for the morning. “Cycling is growing exponentially in the Capital and such serious support and investment from London’s Mayor and his Transport Team can only bode well for London’s future.”
As a part of this investment, TfL is rolling out a workplace package along the Superhighways. This can include cycle to work initiatives of your choice. For example, employees could receive a “Bike Doctor” service free of charge, or national standard cycle training to help give them the confidence to take up cycling to work.
