This September cyclists can get their bike checked over and security marked at various locations in the West End including Fitzrovia.
The New West End Company and Heart of London business Alliance are partnering with Cycle Confident and the Metropolitan Police to offer free sessions where experienced mechanics check everything on your bike from wheels, brakes, gears and tyre pressure to lights, racks, pedals, saddles and more.
The Police will be offering free security marking for your bike. Registering your bike helps police and retailers identify and verify the legitimate owner of bikes that have been stolen or are being resold .
