Bike 4 Life

Bike 4 Life is a new bike hire scheme at four venues across Lincolnshire, funded through Lincolnshire County Councils Short Breaks Fund. The project has paid for a selection of adapted bikes for family hire in Lincoln, Bardney, Bourne and Louth.

 Tricycles, hand cycles, wheelchair bikes and piggy back bikes will be available, as well as standard adult and childrens. Safe, off road cycle routes are nearby, to allow families to spend quality time together and include all the family. You can always bring your own and just hire what you need.

Discounts will be given to families who have children with disabilities at a reduced cost of £7 for adults and £5 for children for 3 hours bike hire.

Two successful launches took place at Bardney Heritage Centre and Grimsthorpe Castle in April 2011. Lots of families came and tried them out, spending quality time together and enjoying the beautiful surroundings.

To access the scheme, contact your nearest centre. You can book ahead if you wish, and carers of children with disabilities can enter Grimsthorpe Castle free of charge.
