Cambridge Dr Bike sessions from September onwards are now available to book.

We are pleased to be able to offer free Dr. Bike sessions to University of Cambridge staff.

To book your space on the session run by your department, please select the correct date and time from the list below and then register your details. Bikes do not have to be dropped off at the specific slot time, they can be dropped off at the beginning and collected at the end if that is more convenient.

During the 20 minute session our fully trained mechanics will check your bike and replace brake pads and cables for free, if needed and time permitting. Advice can be given on any further work that cannot be carried out in the time slot.

Please contact Bikeworks – mechanics@bikeworks.org.uk or via phone (020 8980 7998) to  amend or cancel your session.
