Bike

There are all sorts of reasons for riding a bike.  Cycling to work can be a great way to start and end the day. Making cycling to work a part of your commute is a good way to get fit and healthy. Around a quarter of the car journeys to site are from within 5 miles - cycling is a great alternative to the car over short distances and often a quicker alternative for around town. By switching from the car to the bike you will also help the environment globally (CO2) and locally (noise/pollution). With the rising costs of fuel, cycling can also save you £££’s and help you loose a few lbs too!

The Adastral Park Bike User Group (BUG) promotes and supports cycling as a means of transport. It provides advice to Adastral Park site managers on road design, showers, locker facilities and cycle shelters as well as support to cyclists with information such as routes into work and recommended bike shops and repairers. BUG membership is free and members can also use the on-site cycle workshop at Adastral Park which is equipped with a pump, workstand and many specialist cycling tools.

Through the Adastral Park Travel Plan, Grass Routes, the BUG has now been affiliated with the Cycle Touring Club (CTC) which allows BUG members to obtain a reduced individual affiliation membership from the CTC.
