The Big Fix

Keep your journeys going for less

With fuel costs continuing to rise, more people are turning to cycling. 28% of UK drivers are already walking or cycling more, with a further 15% considering it.

For nearly 150 years, we've been helping people get more from cycling, campaigning for safer roads and better cycling infrastructure while supporting thousands of people across the UK to ride with confidence.

This summer, we launched The Big Fix, a national campaign with bike shops and bike clubs to get people back cycling by fixing up unused or neglected bikes and helping them save money on everyday journeys.

Between 3 and 5 July, they hosted Big Fix events, helping people get their bike checked for free and start saving on short journeys.

Whether you're cycling the kids to school, commuting to work or visiting family and friends, cycling is quick, affordable and reliable. With costs continuing to rise, it gives you the freedom to keep making those journeys for less.
