Commute By Bicycle

You can add cycling into your daily commute in a variety of ways. For example, you may want to try cycling to work, or you may be considering letting your children to cycle to school. Or perhaps you just want to make the odd trip to the shops or post office by bike / partly by bike.

Either way, Cycle Northern Ireland is here to help by providing advice on how to get started. We have a section called 'Getting Started' which provide information on what to wear, safety, choosing the right bike etc...
