Bike & Go hailed as one of the UK’s best hire schemes

A bike hire scheme which operates in Formby has been named one of the best rental companies in the UK by a division of travel giant TripAdvisor.

Bike & Go, which operates from participating railway stations throughout the UK, is included in a list of the top seven bicycle hire companies drawn up by rental company Holiday Lettings, a subsidiary of TripAdvisor.

The list is part of Holiday Lettings’ ‘The UK’s Best Transport Rental Companies’ report, which highlights both the various ways customers can travel to and around their holiday destination, and the leading businesses in each sector.

Jack Johnson of Holiday Lettings said: “Bike & Go made it on to the list because it’s environmentally friendly and really cheap. For just £3.80 a day plus an annual £10 subscription, travellers can cycle around their chosen destination for as long as they like.”

Since launching in 2013, Bike & Go has expanded to offer bike hire facilities from over 60 participating train stations across the North West, North East and Yorkshire, East and South East of England, and Scotland, with more locations due to be added this year.

To hire a Bike & Go bike, users simply need to register their card details online, which they can do via smart phones, tablets, or at home, and pay the annual subscription fee. They will then receive a user number via email which will allow immediate bike hire whilst they wait for their Bike & Go membership card.

Linda van der Haar, Bike & Go’s business manager, said: “We strive to offer our customers the best possible bike hire experience, so we’re delighted that Holiday Lettings has named Bike & Go as one of the best in its field.

“The UK is home to some of Europe’s most beautiful hidden gems, and casual cycling – whether as part of a holiday or as an extension of your train journey, is a great way to switch off, exercise, and get from A to B in a cost-effective and ‘green’ manner.”

Formby Bike & Go is at Formby Train Station and has nine bikes available.
