Secure Cycle Parking

The Bike Rescue Story

The Bike Rescue Project CIC is a bicycle recycling initiative, established in a back garden in 2006. In the half decade since its inception over 6000 broken, abandoned bicycles of all shapes and sizes found new, loving owners who: took them in; bought, them locks; and repaired their little punctures.

The Hub Station Secure Cycle Parking

2011 saw us finally relocated at the long awaited Hub Station adjoining LendalBridge; it is a grade 2 listed, stone building , extensively refurbished from a former electricity substation in the picturesque heart of York. Attached to Lendal Bridge itself, it sits on the bank of the River Ouse a commercial navigation since the time of the Romans. This is a community facility for all cyclists and, indeed, all other citizens (both permanent and transient) in the fair city of York.

The Hub Station currently offers:

ñ Secure parking (at £1 per day.)

ñ Operation Spoke marking (in co-ordination with Safer York Partnership.)

ñ Services and repairs.

ñ Refurbished Bicycle showroom.

ñ Showers, washroom and locker facilities

ñ Bike maintenance courses

ñ Advice on bikes and cycling

ñ Volunteering and placement opportunities.

ñ Hot drinks and snacks

OPENING TIMES:

WEEKDAYS 7am-7pm
SATURDAYS 9am-6pm
Wellington Row, Lendal Bridge

Keeping Your Bike Safe

We recommend that you come and speak to us if you have concerns about how to park your bike safely in York, or any information about bike thieves

We can park your bike safely overnight if you decide to go into town for a drink after work, and we can take care of it during the day and mend its little punctures; we can advise on where are the least troublesome places to park, and what locks are the best deterrent; we can provide cheap and cheerful bikes to leave at the station for rail commuters who want to leave their good bike at home.

Let’s make sure that bicycle thieves get the message: ‘ Hands off ’

How to Find Us

We are easy to find: by bike we are on the Sustrans route 65, which is the River cycle path under LendalBridge, opposite the Aviva building on Wellington row

By Car: there is some parking near us for very short stays, come down North Street, past the Park Inn Hotel to Wellington Row.

Longer parking is only a few minutes walk from us; in the car park accessed to the right of the sorting office on Leman Road which leads to the riverside near the Rowing Club

We look forward to seeing you soon
