Gloucestershire Bike Projec

General information

Gloucestershire Bike Project is a not for profit social enterprise, set up by bike mad volunteers. For us it's all about the bikes. We take bikes that are donated by the public and lovingly refurbish them and sell them at affordable prices. We now stock new Trek bikes and Bontrager accessories.

We work on a really wide range of bikes, from vintage classics like the old 50s Raleighs with rod brakes, through classic 70s, 80s and 90s Racers, MTBs, BMXs and everything in between.

We run free bike repair workshops for anyone who is interested in learning how to do their own repairs, so if you too are a bike nut, come along, you'll be in good company.

We run free young peoples bike building workshops and maintenance course sfor young people who are interested in learning the art of bike repair.

We are always keen to work with other groups or individuals who are interested in all things bike, so get in touch if you think there may be ways of us working together.

We work with a wide range of volunteers, who come to us for very different reasons, the one thing we all have in common is bike love, so if you have a bit of time and enjoy tinkering with bikes, we'd love to have you.

We also run groups and workshops for other charities and organisations, where individual clients are given a bike to refurbish and keep as a healthy mode of transport, this is dependent on funding we can raise or the funds from the bikes we sell. We also offer paid for courses and workshops for both individuals and organisations such as NEET providers.

We are constantly looking at ways we can support people in choosing to cycle if they want to and each year we raise funds to set up a variety of initiatives such as our fee bike loan scheme.
