Velo Works

We start 2023 with a reminder that people will cycle all year round regardless of weather when they feel safe to do so. Well lit and maintained cycle tracks on main roads linking places people use everyday maximise the number and diversity of people who will cycle #BikeIsBest

Hi Twitter, it’s been a while 🚴 but we post regularly on our IG & YouTube so hoping you’ll follow us over there 🤩 #bikemechanic #bikeshop #handbuiltwheels

4 years ago this week we opened our doors for the first time 🎉 How it started and how it’s going 💙 Thank you for the continued support from all our lovely customers 🙏 #bikeshop #glasgow #thenandnow

A great cycle tour on the NCN 7 route and perfect cycling weather 💚 We are on holiday and will reopen next Tuesday (28th). To book an appointment for that week please fill the online booking form in on our website 🙌🚲 #sustrans #cycletouring #visitscotland #bikepacking

New bike day for one of our lucky customers 🙌 A full frame respray and single speed conversion by Argos Racing Cycled then lovingly rebuilt by Velo Works. This bike is now ready for another 30 years of service 🚲💙 #vintagebikerestoration #bikerestoration #glasgow

The only difficulty for us has been tyre recycling. Well now thanks to @VelorimL we are able to recycle all tyres and innertubes. Happy times! We are always looking at ways we can improve our impact and this is a step forward we are really excited about 🚲 (2/2)

Here at Velo Works we probably don’t talk about our green credentials enough. Our shop is run 100% on renewable electricity & we decided to no longer run a business van. The majority of our waste is recycled & we only put one small bag of waste to land fill every two weeks. (1/2)

The competitors at Celtman @cxtri can be tracked here. Rachel our sponsored rider is number 72 🥳 live.durtyevents.com/celt21/

This is Rachel’s second Celtman - she placed 2nd in 2019 which won her a place at Norseman (which is now being held in 2022). Rachel’s wheels are DT Swiss Pr 1400’s and she is wearing Velo Works @prescateamwear jersey and gilet. #triathlon #celtman #celtman2021 #triathlete

This is Rachel one of our sponsored riders. Today she’s competing in @cxtri and has already swam 3.5km in Loch Shieldaig this morning and is currently cycling 200km on the amazing highland roads. When that’s over they will run 42km over 2 Munroes 😱 (1/2)

(2/2) We have supplied them with Dt Swiss wheels, Continental GP 5000 tyres and some quality sustainable kit from @prescateamwear . In addition their bikes will be race ready for each upcoming event. Watch this space for more info on the riders 💙 #glasgow #sponsonseredrider

At Velo Works we have started a sponsorship programme and we hope to develop this year on year. In 2021 we will be sponsoring two regular customers, Rachel and Ian, who do amazing things with their bikes. (Thread 1/2)

A perfect weekend for a bike ride. NCN-7 @SustransScot @sustrans @lomondtrossachs #nationalpark #stirling #scotland #VisitScotland @VisitScotland
