Better Biking Sessions – During your eBike loan period we would encourage you to join us on a Better Biking session. Using both on and off road routes from our EcoHub in Brodick, our qualified staff will improve confidence, experience and knowledge using techniques in communication, road position and observations. Each session lasts approximately 1 hour and can be delivered individually or in a small group of up to 4 people, sessions could be extended into longer rides on request. Contact gerard.ecosavvy@gmail.com for more information and availability

Our 20 Minute Neighbourhood’s project is part of a new national initiative aimed at helping local communities embrace cycling, walking and low-carbon travel over fossil fuelled alternatives. Arran’s villages naturally form 20 minute neighbourhoods which our eBike scheme is able to use to great effect.
Arran Eco Savvy has already delivered eBike schemes encouraging island workforces and key workers to take advantage of our eBikes, this new project is now available to all members of Arran’s local community to enjoy the eBikes in our ’20 minute neighbourhoods’ project, perfect for nipping to the shops, meeting at the café, visiting friends and staying healthy. Through past experience we have found that being able to ride eBikes with a partner has greatly enhanced use and enjoyment. If you’d like to borrow two eBikes in the same household, we’ll do our best to accommodate that.
