We recycle bikes and relocate them in the community for those in need.
New Forest Bike Project
New Forest Bike Project (NFBP) is a social enterprise – a registered Community Interest Company (CIC, number 10327640) which takes in unwanted bicycles and then repairs, restores and relocates them. We aim to help people from all walks of life get out on two wheels and for it to be an inclusive and fun experience. DON’T dump it, recycle your old bike! If you are in need of a refurbished bike – we take referrals, speak to us. Scroll down further to contact us or click on the menu icon top right to find out more.
Please note – yes we do bike fixes and are a bit like a breakers yard for used bike parts if you need something more affordable & be shown how to fix/adjust stuff yourself etc BUT we’re NOT a retail shop selling new bikes & new parts and don’t get involved in warranty work on your new steed, if you need this take it back to where you bought it or there’s plenty of good main dealer shops who sell new stuff in our area – try our friends at: 99bikes/Hargroves (Totton), Boost Bike Hub (Brockenhurst), New Forest Cycling (Burley), Woods Cyclery (Lyndhurst), Forge Cycleworks (Ringwood) or Primera (Bournemouth).
We are a small operation helped by volunteers so don’t have set opening hours – best make an appointment if you want to see us. Please also don’t leave donations outside the workshop if we are not there, they tend to go walkies. Just let us know first to arrange a time before making a trip. Thanks again!
OPEN BY APPOINTMENT ONLY, we’re normally about at the workshop Tuesday-Friday 10am-3pm or briefly Saturday mornings but please check first. We are still doing pick-ups & deliveries in the van but only staying very local at the moment as things are so bonkers busy at the workshop we’re just not getting much time to escape plus the cost of fuel means we have to justify using the van more. PLEASE ALWAYS CHECK before making a journey to see us.
We are doing the FREE Dr Bike ‘fix & learn’ sessions again on Wednesdays 10am-2pm on these dates:
| November 22nd, 29th, December 6th, 13th 2023 January 10th, 17th 24th, 31st 2024 |
Contact us to book a 1/2hr slot to stay & learn simple fixes & adjustments on your bike! Thanks Cycling UK for the support! More info on FB page @newforestbike
We moved premises a while back – it’s 100m up the road from where we were before – now at 55 Old Milton Road, New Milton BH25 6DJ, undertakers either side of us, the dead centre of town etc. Parking is a bit of a free for all out front but there is a rear yard for easier access or a pay and display behind Tesco Express. Or better still, get the train, walk, cycle etc…..Google/Apple maps is your friend.
