Old Ford Bikeworks All Ability Club

Old Ford Bikeworks All Ability Club, led by Jamie at Bikeworks, is a London-based gym that's all about making cycling accessible for everyone. Whether you're into leisure rides, need some exercise, or just want a better way to get around, Jamie's got you covered.

They've got this great feature called Cycle Connect. It's a free, door-to-door cycling service where you and up to two mates can enjoy a ride around your local area. Perfect for a bit of light exercise and getting some fresh air. This service runs in west London, mainly for folks in Kensington & Chelsea, Westminster, and the estates around Wormwood Scrubs, but they're flexible on routes.

With Cycle Connect, you get a spot for three passengers, and there’s an option to pedal, but don't worry if you’re not feeling it—the bike's got an electric assist. This is an adult-only service, running most weekdays from 9:30 am to 4 pm, with more slots available in the warmer months. Jamie and his team will sort you out for a 1.5-hour ride, taking you wherever you need in the local area.

To book, just give them a call, drop an email, or visit their online booking page starting January 2024.

Bikeworks isn't just about cycling; they also champion e-scooters to cut down on car journeys in the city. They’ve even got a Standard for e-scooter riding and host programmes and events to get you up to speed.

For anyone in London wanting to dive into cycling or try out an e-scooter, Jamie and the team at Old Ford Bikeworks All Ability Club make it easy and fun while pushing for inclusivity and community vibes.
