CYCLING

The Doddington Hall Estate is the perfect destination for a bite-sized cycling fix. Be it road, gravel or off-road riding, you can get a taste of them all.

Bike hire

Lincoln is a great place to cycle and Giant Store Lincoln at Doddington Hall is your number one destination for bike rentals in Lincoln. 

We have a wide range of high quality, fully serviced Giant and Liv bicycles for hire – whether you are planning a cycle tour, holiday or simply a day trip into Lincoln city centre or the surrounding area, Giant Store Lincoln is here to cater to all your bicycle hire needs.

Our fleet includes lifestyle, road, gravel, E-MTB, E-bikes, kids bikes and a trailer.

GEORGIE TWIGG TRACK

For a serene road riding experience try the Georgie Twigg Track. This perfect ribbon of tarmac winds through the fields with some lovely sweeping bends.

The track is entirely off-road, so you can spin effortlessly through the countryside and even go further as the track links Doddington Hall with the National Cycle Network Route 64. Getting between Doddington and the centre of Lincoln could not be easier.

The Georgie Twigg Track starts at Kennel Lane, just over the road from the Hall. 

MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAIL

OPEN DAILY, SIGN ON AT GIANT LINCOLN

If weaving through the woods on your mountain bike is your cup of tea, then head to Giant Lincoln Bike Shop to sign on (it’s free!) and we’ll direct you to our secret mountain bike jump trail. You can park at the Hall and ride down on our gravel roads and trails. It’s a great family ride on relatively flat terrain with something for all.

Regardless of how far you want to push your skills, everyone will appreciate the escape to this little haven of single track and dense woodland. 

Please note that sometimes it is necessary to close the trail at short notice due to circumstances outside of our control
