Portsmouth residents now have a quick and easy way to give their bike a free health check, with pop-up Bike Doctor sessions.

These sessions are a great opportunity to support cycling across the city. Choosing to cycle is an ideal way to boost your health and wellbeing, save money on travel, and help create safer, less congested roads. Plus, cycling contributes to cleaner air for Portsmouth.

What to expect at a Bike Doctor clinic

At each Bike Doctor clinic, experienced mechanics can:

• Carry out minor repairs
• Offer maintenance advice to keep your bike in top condition

If there’s capacity, you can wait while the repair is completed or leave your bike with the Bike Doctor and collect it later.

If your bike needs more complex repairs, the mechanic can offer expert guidance on where to get further assistance.
