Discover Shrewsbury the leisurely way by hiring an electric bike with Shrewsbury Canoe & eBike Hire as they open new hire booking office on Claremont Hill, Shrewsbury.

Visitors to Shrewsbury can now enjoy getting around with more than just pedal power.  Now hiring an electric bike makes it really easy for you to discover the town and the local area.

Since establishing in 2016 Shrewsbury Canoe & eBike Hire has been very busy hiring canoes and enabling the public greater access to the water at both The Quarry and Attingham Park.  This year they’ve undergone a bit of an evolution and now plan to conquer the land too by offering a fleet of electric bikes for hire.  July marks opening the new booking office, and is the eBike hire hub for Shrewsbury promoting a cleaner greener way to get around town.

Nigel Conway, company owner says “We’re thrilled to be able to offer this new activity in the town for visitors and locals alike.  Hiring an eBike makes going to see all the local places of interest and exploring the wonderful countryside around here much so more relaxing. It benefits the town as people get to see and experience so much more than riding in a car could ever give you.  When they see all that Shrewsbury offers and so are bound to spend more time here.  The feeling on the eBike is exhilarating and so much fun.  We’ve now opened a booking office where the eBikes will be based.  Pop in and take one out for a half or full day hire and we know you will be hooked. ”

 

eBikes are as simple to ride as a conventional bike, but with that added push to get you up hills and keep you going for longer.

Maggie Love from Shrewsbury Ambassadors gave it a go recently

“I’ve never been able to share a simple countryside ride with my partner because I have a damaged knee.  Many people had told me that an e-bike would be a good option, and what a great freedom it gave me.  I’ve really craved to be in the glorious Shropshire Countryside and the 10km loop we took filled me with all the summer smells and sights I’d been missing.”

The eBikes are available for hire from Shrewsbury Canoe & eBike Hire’s office 6 Claremont Hill.  For further info and bookings for eBikes or canoe hire call 01743 244800 or check out www.shrewsburyebikehire.co.uk

"🏰✨ Dive into the heart of Shrewsbury's Castle Quarter – the epicenter of history and grandeur! 🏰 Home to four of the town's largest historic treasures – Shrewsbury Castle, Library, Prison, and Train Station. 

Did you know Shrewsbury Castle's foundations were laid in 1083 by the 1st Earl of Shrewsbury, Roger de Montgomery? 
Montgomery, a cousin of William the Conqueror, earned this castle and more as a thank-you for his aid during the Norman conquest.

From royal stronghold to a 16th-century transformation, Shrewsbury Castle has quite the story. Now, it stands majestically, housing the Shropshire Regimental Museum. 👑🏰 Ready to step into the pages of history?
