About Aviemore Bikes
Aviemore Bikes, also known locally as Mikes Bikes, is a dedicated mountain bike hire shop located in the Myrtlefield Shopping Centre in the heart of Aviemore, the gateway town to the Cairngorms National Park. With direct trail access from the shop door and a large car park for those arriving by vehicle, Aviemore Bikes has positioned itself as the most convenient starting point for exploring the extensive network of forest trails, singletrack, and gravel routes that crisscross the Cairngorms.
The hire fleet includes hardtail and full-suspension mountain bikes, gravel bikes, and e-bikes, all maintained to a high standard and available in a full range of sizes for adults and older children. Staff provide detailed trail maps and route recommendations based on ability and conditions, from gentle forest loops along the Speyside Way to technical singletrack descents through Rothiemurchus and Glenmore. Helmets, locks, and repair kits are included with every hire, and the shop stocks a full range of spares, accessories, and clothing.
Aviemore Bikes stands out for its trail-side location and the depth of local riding knowledge the team brings. Rather than simply handing over a bike, staff take time to match riders with the right machine and the right route, ensuring everyone from first-time mountain bikers to seasoned trail riders gets the most from the Cairngorms trail network. The shop has built a loyal following among both locals and visitors who return season after season.
