Get around with Glasgow NextBike
A great way to get around Glasgow is using the NextBikes, 650 of which can be found at stands across the city.

Students and staff members at UofG get a free annual membership, plus 60 minutes free each rental! For more information and how to register you can visit the UofG website. Not registered as a student yet? No problem! Between 29th June and 24th August 2020 the first 30 minutes of each rental is free. You can find out more here.

Cycle routes and parks
There are great cycle routes in and around Glasgow, as well as beautiful parks to explore.
The People Make Glasgow website has route suggestions, as does Glasgow City Council and Visit Scotland. There are also routes on apps like Strava and MapMyRide.

Check out our Explore Glasgow's Parks article too for suggested trips to parks from the residences!
Stay safe while cycling
It's important to stay safe when cycling. If you haven't been in the saddle for a while, take a few minutes to familiarise yourself with NextBike's Safe Cycling Guide.
NextBike have increased their cleaning regimes to reduce virus transmission, however, cyclists are recommended to wear gloves/wash hands/use hand sanitiser before and after using the bicycle. Here is their guide to using NextBikes during the covid-19 pandemic.
We'll see you on the road!
