BikeLIVE 2018, our popular demo day series returns with the announcement of these first four dates and venues

We've just confirmed the first four venues for our BikeLIVE demo days to take place in 2018, a couple we've visited before but for the first time we'll be heading to London and the Forest of Dean too.  

At the BikeLIVE events earlier this year we had the likes of Canyon, Giant, Cube, Ribble and Wilier amongst others having around one hundred bikes between them for you to play around on and test out until your heart's content, well between the hours of 9am to 5pm at least. It gives you a great chance to ride that dream bike, try out the latest electronic shifting or even disc brakes and who knows you might even end up scratching that n+1 itch with a new bike.

Tickets are priced at £15 per person and on the day you'll find various food and drink vendors on hand to keep you fuelled up in the event village.

We've put a quick rundown of each event below but you can watch the videos, check out the full details and buy your tickets on the BikeLIVE website here too. This is where you'll also find all of the latest events organised by road.cc, off-road.cc & ebiketips.
