Formerly known as Bike Life, this is the UK's biggest ever study of walking, wheeling and cycling.

We took the premises on in February 2022 and it’s always been for years a road with traffic, it wasn’t a pedestrianised route like we have now. We took the lease on knowing that they were going to properly redevelop, which they have now, it is absolutely perfect.
We just love having it pedestrianised. It’s a lot quieter, like people can really engage, you haven’t got the danger of cars.
It’s really nice and wide, and it’s clean as well, and it’s a good surface for walking on and cycling. The bicycle racks outside the shop are important for the customers as most of them cycle or walk to the shop.
André recently started cycling to work and really enjoys it, it is better for the environment, it’s more economical and it is healthy, helping him get fitter
