Welcome
Join us for accessible cycling adventures in Kinross-shire
We aim to improve the health and wellbeing of people of all ages within our community
About Us
Kinross-shire Trishaws and Community Cycling is a charity that organises and delivers cycling based recreational activities on bicycles, tricycles and adapted bikes. We aim to improve the quality of life for local people of all ages and abilities - improving physical and mental health and general wellbeing.
Our projects bring people together, foster a sense of belonging, drive social change, build local skills and knowledge, develop leadership, and improve confidence, esteem, and resilience. We are not aiming to develop “cyclists”, but rather, to use the medium of cycling in its various forms to improve peoples lives and increase social capital.

We bring people together for regular, fun, social, and inclusive rides to increase fitness and general wellbeing. Our guided and supported rides enable participants to build friendships and meet people from all walks of life. They create real community spirit that spills over into everything else. Plus, more bikes means less traffic and cleaner air for everyone! Local shops and cafes love the extra visitors, and riders feel better both physically and mentally. It's amazing how a simple bike ride can transform entire communities!

We offer our local primary schools the opportunity to develop a “bike bus” to enable children and families to travel actively to school. A bike bus is an organised group cycle on a set route with timetabled stops along the way. Cycling to school in the bike bus increases physical activity and enables children to arrive at school feeling refreshed and ready to learn. This contributes to improved child physical and mental health. The bike buses will increase community spirit and provide safety in numbers – especially those that may not feel confident enough to make the journey by bike alone, but can manage as part of a larger, more visible group.

Want to know why guided cycling trips are so fantastic? You get to explore amazing places without stressing about getting lost or missing the good stuff! Your knowledgeable guides share stories about local history and take you to those special spots tourists never find.

Whether you're just starting out or you've been riding for years, these trips let you focus on the fun parts while someone else creates the routes and guides you to the all the best places. Our guided rides are of varying distances to make them inclusive for those just starting out or those that can go a bit further, and everything in between. These are suitable for local people and visitors to the area and are held on a variety of terrain utilising local 'cycling friendly' green routes.

Gentle rolling hills provide accessible routes for families, while connecting paths to the Kingdom of Fife and Perthshire attract more adventurous cyclists. Local villages welcome visitors with cozy cafés and accommodation, making Kinross-shire an ideal base for exploring central Scotland's diverse cycling network.

KT&CC advocates for safer cycling infrastructure across Kinross-shire. We combine strategic lobbying with community engagement to push for improved path networks and maps of local cycleways. Our volunteers have built strong relationships with transportation bodies such as The Walk, Wheel, Cycle Trust (formerly Sustrans) and Cycling UK to influence policymakers and planning officials. We are currently working with Perth and Kinross Council to upgrade the National Cycle Network Route 775 that runs through Kinross and Milnathort (presently designated 'very poor'). To achieve this, we are engaging with Persimmon Homes to upgrade the country park paths at Weavers Gait which have not been developed to be accessible to those on adapted bikes, trishaws, pushchairs, scooters and wheelchairs. Persimmon will not be investing any further in this development and we at KT&CC have taken on the mantel to address this situation for the benefit of the community and to provide safe passages for all riders and wheelers. Our practical approach balances grassroots activism with evidence-based advocacy, making us effective champions for cyclists of all abilities across urban and rural environments.
