Flat tyre or dropped chain on the school run? i will come to you — wherever 'you' safely are?
You're not a mechanic. You didn't sign up to be one. You just needed to get the kids to school and the shopping done, and now you're standing on a pavement far from home with a flat tyre, two kids, and no idea what happens next?
If you get a flat tyre or a dropped chain with the kids on board, here's what to do.
Get off the road, not off the bike. Wheel it or ride it slowly to the nearest safe place — a driveway, a shop front, a side street, a patch of pavement away from traffic. It doesn't need to be far, just out of the way of danger.
Leave the kids where they are. The cargo bay is usually the calmest, most familiar place for them to sit while you sort out what to do next — there's no need to get everyone out onto the pavement.
Message iLovesMyBike using the Whatsapp link below. Tell me where you are and I will give you a straight answer: how long until I can get to you, and whether it's worth waiting where you are or locking your tern and moving somewhere safer and more comfortable while you wait.
You don't need to touch the tyre. No tools, no kit, no expectations — that's what you're calling iLovesMyBike for.
I come out to your location anywhere in Central Bristol. Wherever you've ended up that's safe, that's where I will fix your punctured tyre. If the spot you've decided on isn't going to work, I'll try and help you figure out somewhere better before I set off.
There's two service options iLovesMyBike can offer, to get you the help you need
PRIORITY Mobile (Call-Out Service) - £150
Operates Monday-Friday, between 8am-5pm.
As it is an emergency, i will tell you immediately if i can re-prioritise my time to get to you within 90 minutes (1.5 hrs) of your acknowledged call.
90 minutes is my aim, not a promise — and I'll tell you within minutes of your message whether that's realistic today.
i'm one person, not a call centre — which means I'll always tell you the truth, straight away. If i'm already on a job when you message, i'll say so straight away, along with a realistic time, or let you know if today isn't a day i can help. That way you're never left guessing — you can decide whether to wait, or make other arrangements.
My call-out price includes the 1st hour labour, and new inner tubes will be an extra £9.99 each on top of the service charge.
After the 1st hour, Labour is charged at my double rate at £60/hr.
The second service option
STANDARD Mobile Call-Out Service - £65 Please book ahead for a mutually convenient time.
Operates Monday-Friday, during 'normal' business hours 9am-4pm.
Includes 1st hour labour (New Schwalbe inner tubes needed are not included in the price)
Labour after 1st hour charged at my single rate at £30/hr.
