Build Bikes. Ride the Track.
This team day is delivered by Bikeworks at the London Velodrome in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Teams work together to build bikes, then finish the day with a one-hour coached track session at the London Velodrome. Everything takes place in one venue, with no travel between activities.
The Charity Bike Factory and Velodrome Track Session brings together practical teamwork and riding the track in one of the most recognisable cycling venues in the world. It is an active, focused day designed for teams who want a practical, hands-on day together.
Build Bikes. Build Teams. Give Back.
The Charity Bike Factory is a practical team challenge. Teams take part in a series of bicycle-based activities that test communication, problem-solving, and shared decision-making.
Working together, participants work towards a clear goal: building a fully assembled bike. Once complete, the bikes are passed on through Bikeworks’ community partners, giving the work done on the day a tangible outcome beyond the event itself.
Why teams value this part of the day:
- Encourages collaboration and clear communication
- Engages a wide range of skills, from planning to hands-on work
- Creates a shared outcome that is practical and useful

What to expect:
- A structured session that allows riders to progress steadily
- Expert coaches on hand to provide guidance and support
