The bikes will go for 40-60 miles on one charge.

The likelihood of this happening is very slight as all bikes will be fully charged and well-maintained by your hire point.  Charging points are all along the route, but you can just ask a friendly café to plug your battery in while you enjoy a well earned spot of lunch!  If you do by chance run out, just phone your hire point for advice.

You must be over 14 years of age to hire an electric bike. However, don’t let that stop you getting out and about and exploring Morecambe Bay! Many of our hire points also hire out regular bikes, so younger members of your party can ride along,  whilst you hire an electric bike.

A reasonable level of fitness is helpful, as you can certainly work up a sweat if that’s what you want! However, it is also great for people who may have an injury or health problems, but its always good to check if you are unsure.

It is recommended that you always wear a cycle helmet when out and about on a bike. This will be provided along with a high visibility vest to wear over your top layer, to make you visible to all road users.

Otherwise, wear comfortable clothing and footwear that is appropriate for the changeable weather!

At the moment we can’t do that due to insurance issues.  We are working on it, but for now, you need to return your bike to the place you hired it from.

You can view the Bay Cycle Way route here and purchase the route map here or from your hire point.
