Bletchley Bike Loan Scheme
Bletchley Bike Loan Scheme provided access to free bikes across the whole of Milton Keynes. The scheme was supported by Spotlight on Bletchley and local bike recycling company Re-Buy-Cycle with maintenance and repairs carried out by Milton Keynes Youth Offending Team.
Active Travel Milton Keynes would like to thank the people of Milton Keynes and the surrounding area for donating unused bikes to the scheme.
Cycling and Walking
Active Travel Milton Keynes provided cycle training for adults and children across Milton Keynes and guided bike rides gave people the opportunity to develop their skills and discover new routes.
Active Travel Milton Keynes also organised short guided walks in the Bletchley area giving people the opportunity to meet new people while promoting an active lifestyle.
