Corporate Events
Cheshire Cycles can tailor make your Dr Bike event to suit your needs. With the growth of traffic congestion and rising costs, we aim to compliment your company’s travel plan and help offer offer the following benefits.
Reduce your carbon footprint
An average of 300kg of CO2 can be saved by switching to cycling per person per annum!
Improve staff output
Healthy staff are more productive as well as managing their stress levels better. Studies show regular cyclist take up to 25% less time off work due to illness each year.
Save costs to your business
Car park costs are estimated to currently cost over £1000 per space per annum in some areas of the UK. Converting drivers to cycling has a huge financial reward for both the staff member and employer and is stimulated by regular cycle maintenance to ensure year round usage.

A large part of a company’s CSR (corporate social responsibility) can be met by working towards a greener travel plan. Incentivise your staff by offering Dr Bike Sessions regularly and supporting cycling to work as a viable option.
