Maidenhead Cycle Hub is a local charity, passionate about cycling and the benefits it brings to individuals, communities and the environment. We aim to get more people cycling by providing low cost refurbished bikes, low cost servicing and repairs, organised rides, advice on bike routes and cycling safety. We also provide local young people with the opportunity to gain technical and transferable life skills to build a successful future.
Charity Aim: To encourage more people to take up cycling by selling affordable secondhand bikes and to refurbish donated bikes to stop bikes going to landfill.
In 2023 we refurbished and sold over 600 bikes.
Maidenhead Cycle Hub is passionate about cycling and the wide range of benefits it brings:
We have a WORKSHOP in the Bell Street Business Centre near the station in Maidenhead where our qualified mechanics and workshop volunteers repair and refurbish donated bicycles.
We have a SHOP in the Nicholson Centre, Maidenhead where we sell the refurbished bikes as well as new and secondhand bike accessories.
We have a friendly team of over 25 shop and workshop mechanics and volunteers, and several of our trustees volunteer at shop and workshop too.
In conjunction with CyclingUK we can provide free 30 minute 'Dr Bike' bike 'mot' sessions for local residents where our trained mechanics check the bikes, make minor adjustments and indicate if any areas need additional attention.
