Pedal PowerCycles

Pedal Power Cycles has traded from 92 Vineyard in Abingdon since 1979, making it the town's oldest bicycle shop and now run by a third generation of the same family. The shop sells and services bikes across the range, from children's first bicycles to electric models, and keeps a workshop on the premises where mechanics carry out repairs and routine servicing. Staff also advise on routes along the Thames Path and the surrounding lanes, given the shop's position close to the river. Pedal Power operates from this single Vineyard address only, with no other branches in Oxfordshire. The business has stayed independent through four decades of trading, competing alongside the larger bicycle retail chains that have since opened across the county.
