Drive to Work Day for Cyclists.

This sounds like a great idea to show people just how cycling can effect the day-to-day traffic in our cities - and it seems to have worked. 

http://drivetoworkday.org/

Although it seems to be poking fun at the cyclist its indeed a campaign to illustrate just how everyone using their cars can cause chaos in the towns and cities.

Stories about the relationship between cyclists and motorists have been making the headlines for weeks, but with news of the aftermath from the TV program 'War on Britains Roads' that aired on The BBC, we can see that there are rights and wrongs on both sides. But that is a behavior issue. This campaign puts that to one side and makes it very clear that the number of cyclists out there really are helping the roads to flow that little bit easier.

Bromptons!

Dont we just love Bromptons. We have been selling Bromptons for a number of years now and we have seen the popularity of them grow year on year. 

As I am sure you know, we stock them all the time and we always have a Demo model in stock so you can try on before getting the B-Spoke order form out. 

We also service Bromptons of all ages and there is nothing we haven't already seen. We stock a large range of bags and accessories but we also have a number of spares from cables, mudguards, lights and other mechanical  parts. For more information on servicing and spaces give us a call on 01926 430211 and the staff at John Atkins Cycles are ready to help!

Brompton Demo Update.

I have given the Brompton Demo bike its maiden voyage this week and ridden it to work on my short commute and all is well. I have to admit however that its not a M6 as mentioned in the demo listing the other day but it is in fact the new H Type bar. 

This bike is also going to get some changes but here is the basic spec as of now:

H6L (6 speed with muguards no rack)

Telescopic seat post.

Battery Lights

Brompton Tyres

Sexy colour scheme

If you want to try out a Brompton then give us a call to see if its in as its a popular bike as is being used almost all the time. 01926 430211

I Love Brooks!

I just love Brooks products!

I am the proud owner of numerous Brooks items including these :-)

I must say the Team Pro Vans LTD Edition is my favorite but everything from the standard black B17 to the  Brixton Bag is amazing quality! Pictured above are the Team Pro and my newest addition, the blue B17 (of which we can order if you are interested...).

We have a large range of Brooks items in stock at all times. We have a great range of popular saddles and we also keep the accessories like the trouser straps, mud flaps, maintenance kits and toe straps for example. 

We can get all of the Brook product range so give us a call and we can see if its in stock! Pop down to see what we have in store too! There is a lot to see!

Pretty Bromptons

A lovely picture of some rather nice colours that feature in the Brompton range.

If you want anymore information on Bromptons or want to have a go on one, then pop in or call John Atkins Cycles on 01926 430211. We can help when deciding on whether to go for a mad Blue and Red colour combo, whether 2 or 3 speed is best for your needs or advise on the differences between the T-Bag and C-Bag.

Nottingham and Leeds Universities getting more people on bikes!

This is great to hear and we can only hope more Universities can do the same.

There is no harm in seeing more City's with more bikes and therefore less car traffic.
