Meet Katie and her perfect bike! Katie came to us Meet Katie and her perfect bike!
Katie came to us looking for a bike that could handle the local trails, but had found it tricky to find the right bike in an XS frame size.

We tracked down a BH Expert 5.5 in that lovely metallic candy red, kitted out with Shimano XT gears and a Fox 32 fork so she can tackle the rough stuff without any worries. 

We also swapped the saddle for a Selle Italia Donna to make sure she's comfortable on longer rides, after all - your saddle is a very personal choice.

It's what we love doing – finding people the right bike for them, not just selling what's on the floor.

We think that smile says it all!
Thank you for calling in Katie, have a fantastic time out on all those fantastic, local routes.

A bike for all budgets! After 10 Years in the ind A bike for all budgets!

After 10 Years in the industry, we live and breathe bike. We're engineers who build them from the ground up, so whether you need help choosing between models or fancy something built specifically for you, we can help.

We stock two big bike brands here at Pickering’s - @BH_bikes and @genesisbikesuk .  They cover every rider and every budget!

Genesis are a British, brand with a long history and a wide range of road, gravel, MTB and e-bikes. They’re known as the adventure brand and offer touring, gravel and road options. 

@bh_bikes bikes are a Spanish brand with bikes built for versatility, durability and comfort. They make high-quality bikes that suit touring, commuting, adventure and everyday riding – at exceptional prices and all without compromise.

We don’t do hard sells, we just believe in honest advice, personalised service and proper aftercare, and we're keen to set you up with the right bike for how and where you choose to cycle.

If you’re looking for your next bike, come and see us – we're always happy to talk all-things-bikes!

We’re really lucky to be in the heart of the Natio We’re really lucky to be in the heart of the National Forest. 
Whether you’re just getting back on your bike or after a longer challenge, we have some great options on our doorstep. 

Here are some routes that we love!

Beginner & Leisurely Rides 

1. Conkers Circuit & National Forest Paths
Conkers Discovery Centre, Rawdon Road, Moira
• Beginner-friendly
• Scenic trails
This off-road loop is a great place to start if you’re new to cycling or want a more relaxed ride. Enjoy the scenery as you go!

2. Donisthorpe Woodland Park & Canal Paths
Church Street, Donisthorpe
• Easy routes for all abilities
• Peaceful surroundings

The paths around Donisthorpe woodlands are smooth, with lots of places to stop and rest. You can extend the ride into Ashby Woulds if you want to go that little bit further.

More Advanced routes
3. Rolling Endurance Loop (Repton & Willington)
• Long, flowing country lanes
• Ideal for road bikes and tempo riding
From Repton, head out towards Willington, using the quiet back roads. Loop back via Milton and Findern, returning to Repton. This ride’s perfect for building endurance. 

4. Hills & Grit Route (Ticknall, Calke & Staunton Harold)
• Short climbs and sharp descents
• Suits strong road or gravel setups
This ride’s all about power and control. It’s a shorter distance, but takes big effort… a proper test of the legs!

How many of these have you tried?

What’s your favourite local route? Tell us in the comments - bonus points for hidden gems!

Thank you to Geoff, Kate and John for sharing this snap from their ride on their brand new @bh_bikes  It's always great to see our customers out enjoying their rides!
