Following the success of Tour de France, Welcome to Yorkshire, supported by Yorkshire Bank; have helped local communities set up bike banks to allow free bike hire.

Used bikes are donated for free and then reconditioned and hired out, allowing children and adults to learn to ride, get fit or just enjoy their natural environment on a bike.

Calderdale has two bike banks located at:

Happy Days Cycles in 18 Town Hall Street, Sowerby Bridge

Active Calderdale Bike Library, Halifax Fire Station, in Skircoat Moor Road

The Active Calderdale Library at Halifax is open 10am -1pm on the first Saturday of each month and run by West Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service in collaboration with Calderdale Council.To book a bike and for enquiries (including donating a bike) please email bikelibrary@calderdale.gov.uk

Bikes are also available for hire from:

The Bicycle Den – along the Rochdale canal towpath in Hebden Bridge
