Our 2014 PROMPT D211 Photo competition.
Helen and I have deliberated, discussed and debated and have chosen this great photo from the 2014 Etape du Tour. A rare moment when it was not raining.
Mark please get in touch with us so we can send you out a Col du Galibier Jersey.

Here’s a prompt D211 at the top of Michael Gate Climb in Lincoln. Looks like Roubaix isn’t the only place to tackle some cobbles!
Kevan and Christine rented a couple of prompt D211’s back in July and took them up the Col du Galibier.
The first picture is Kevan part way up the Col du Galibier with the Col du Lauteret visible below. The second is Kevan climbing the Col du Galibier and the third is both Kevan and Christine at the summit.
Another proud owner of a prompt in full king of the mountains gear.
Tom bought one of our ex hire road bikes from us.
Line rented a bike from us and took some great pictures of the Prompt D211. The first is at the bottom of the Sarenne descent after climbing Alpe d’Huez, the second along the road to Villard Reculas in some bad weather and finally on the Col d’Ornon.
A couple of our ex hire frames were sold to a couple from Germany last week. We are waiting for the bike builds and will add them to this page. They were here for the week and had both just competed in the alpe d’huez triathlon.
Mark rented another bike from us to complete the Etape du tour in less than ideal weather conditions. Still, it looks like he is enjoying the ride!
Earlier this year we were the official bike hire for the Paris Roubaix Challenge. Here is a snapshot of Mark heading over the cobbles that characterise L’Enfer du Nord or “The Hell of the North”. No bikes were harmed during the sportive!
Here’s another couple of photos of Gerard tackling the Alpe in June during Alpe d’Huezes. Both him and the bike made it up and down the climb 6 times in one day! That’s endurance for you!
All of our bikes were out for La Marmotte 2014 this year. We managed to get a few photos of our customers .this one was taken at the start line in Bourg d’Oisans
A couple of photos with your bikes in for the photo comp…not your usual I imagine..!
thanks for the rental, all was great…
Rob and Gary, Sheffield, England

Alan from Australua sent this photo in of him and his Prompt d211 at the Tom Simpson memorial on Mont Ventoux
Hot on alpe d’huez today. Hit 34 degrees centigrade in some places
We love great stories here and nothing comes more epic than tackling alpe d’huez 6 times in one day. Each year the Dutch arrive en mass for alpe d’huzes. They ride up 6 times either as a team or individually raising money for cancer research.
Gerard managed the climb 6 times finally returning his prompt hire bike at 9pm
Loaded on the van for Mont Ventoux is
this custom painted white D211. This bike usually lives in the New Forest in Hampshire England but was over here in France for a week of cycling with More Than 21 Bends
Father and son from Holland were with us last week and hired a couple of bikes. They tackled Alpe d’Huez, Col de Sarenne and also the road out to La Berarde. Apparently the father ( a keen cyclist) at 65 comfortably beat his son up all the climbs in the area.
