Getting Your Bike to Start and Home Again
Option 1: Customer Drop Off / Collection
FREE of Charge
If you can bring your bike to and collect from our offices in Northamptonshire then we will transfer your bike Free of Charge. No need to dismantle we'll take it fully assembled and safely secure it in the support vehicle for transporting.
We can also take helmets strapped to bikes and day bags labelled with your name.
Option 2: Bike Collection or Delivery - Pedal Britain Support Van
Cost for this service is £75.00 per bike - One Way to Start or From the End
On the Tuesday and Wednesday before a tour starts and in the week after a tour, based on geographical location of clients that have signed up for this service, Pedal Britain's support van will come to an address of your choosing, which could be work, home or cycle shop to collect / deliver your bike.
No need to dismantle we'll take it fully assembled and safely secure in the support vehicle for transporting.

Option 3: Bike Collection or Delivery - Transport Partner
Cost for this service is £75.00 per bike - One Way to Start or From the End
If you happen to fall outside the geographical area being covered by the support van prior to the tour then do not despair we have an alternative solution.
On the Monday before a tour starts we'll arrange for our trusted transport partner to collect your bike from an address of your choosing, which could be work, home or cycle shop and deliver your bike to Pedal Britain.
Clients will need to securely package up their own bike in a Medium size (150 x 22 x 90 cm) cardboard bike box. A local bike shop will for free or small fee provide a suitable box and much of the packing material you will need for this. Pedal Britain will return your bike back in the same way the week following a tour.
Once we arrive in Inverness on the Sunday the Pedal Britain team will help you re-assemble your bike ready for push off on Monday.
We cannot via this service accept helmets or any day bags packed inside the boxes.
Option 4: Bike Delivery - JOG Bike Company
Cost for this service is £135.00 per bike - One Way back Home
We only use this option when the delivery address for your bike is one that does not fit geographically into any of the routes planned for the Pedal Britain support vehicles and you do not want your bike returned via option 3. The bikes will be packed into oversized reinforced cardboard boxes for you - saddle lowered and handle bars turned - are only adjustments made.
We'll send you a link to provide information required for this service and your bike will be delivered within 7 days of the tour ending.
Bike Transfer Service: Both Ways
