Brompton Bike Hire available for just £1 during rail strikes

In response to the upcoming, planned, rail strikes across the UK, Brompton Bike Hire have today announced that they are offering free bike-hire for the strike period. Customers will be able to join as a member for just £1 and get 5 days of free hire using the code STRIKE*. Hire is then £5 per day thereafter.

Brompton Bike Hire provides everybody with access to the iconic folding bicycles, helping people to move around the city freely. Set up in 2011, and now has nearly 70 docks UK wide, this making it the UK’s largest network of hire bikes.

Customers simply download the app, register, reserve, and ride!

Brompton Bike Hire can be used as a longer test ride, with hire fees up to £150 able to be redeemed against the purchase of a brand-new Brompton – allowing those exploring new ways of travel during the strike a pathway to make the change more permanent.

*Offer ends at 11:59pm on Friday 24th of June. All Brompton Bike Hire Terms & Conditions apply.
