A free, family-friendly cycling event is coming to the area this Sunday, 20 September, and it is well worth the short trip across the river. The Richmond Cargo Bike Fair runs from 11am to 4pm outside Richmond Station, bringing together residents, cycling groups, local businesses and experts to showcase what cargo bikes can do for everyday travel.
Visitors can try out a range of cargo bike models on the day — useful if you have been curious about swapping a car trip for something greener and more practical. There will also be tailored advice on hand from cycling specialists, and community groups will be present for anyone wanting to get more involved in local cycling initiatives.
One of the highlights is an accessible cycling strand: Van Raam will be offering test rides on their mobility scooter bike, a machine that can be pedalled manually, ridden with electric assist, or operated in full electric mode — making it accessible to a wide range of abilities and ages. It is a rare chance to try adapted cycling in a relaxed, no-pressure environment.
The event is also the backdrop for a wider discount offer: Richmond residents can get 50% off two OurBike cargo bike rides using the code LCF2×50 in the OurBike app, valid until 31 December 2026. Full details on both the fair and the discount are on the Richmond Council website.
