Bikeminded Tours
Test Your Film Knowledge
16/04/2012
On Saturday we kicked off with the first of our summer cycle tours. This one was run by the Fat Tire Bike Company, who sent along the delightful Jamie to lead us around the borough on a tour to test even the best film buff’s knowledge. We learnt about some of the secrets behind Kubrick’s...
Cycling into Summer on one of our tours
05/04/2012
Morning Folks. We hope you have some fantastic things planned for the coming Easter weekend. Any nice rides planned to burn off some of that chocolate munching? We’re thinking of heading along the Thames to take in some of the annual Oxford v Cambridge boat race. We love any old reason to get...
Ghost Cycle Tour
31/10/2011
Happy Halloween! We hope you have some fun things planned for tonight. Last Thursday we held our own two wheeled Halloween celebration… a Ghost Cycle Tour.

Friday Frivolity…. a tour of the Psycho House

To get you in the mood for Halloween and our Ghost Tour next week, we’re introducing you to one of Kensington and Chelsea most famous past residents.

The second Cake and Coffee Cruise

Is the new abode for our future King and Queen haunted? Kensington Palace has been the residence of kings and queens for many centuries. It became a Royal Palace after being purchased by King William III in 1689. According to Peter Underwood, the author of Haunted London, the property cost £18,000 at the time...
Coffee and cycling, a perfect partnering
04/10/2011
We love coffee here at Bikeminded HQ. Its the fuel that gets us going in the morning and is the perfect pairing for a cycle ride. In fact, anyone who follows us on twitter has probably noticed coffee is the reason for many a weekend cycle ride! On Saturday we are going on...
