Proud To Work Together
Our partnership with Giant goes back a long way. In fact, all the way back to the very beginning of Skedaddle when, almost 29 years ago now, co-founders Paul and Andrew set off on a cycling adventure through the rugged terrain of South America riding the then state-of-the-art Giant Chaos and Giant GT Avalanche bikes graciously donated by the company.
Ever since then, our companies have worked together to provide Skedaddle clients with the bikes, gear and support they need in order to enjoy their cycling holiday experience to the fullest. “The bikes and technology may have changed over the years but the constant has been our close relationship with Giant,” said Andrew Straw, co-founder of Skedaddle. “They are a great bunch of people we are proud to call friends rather than simply a supplier.”
As companies, we are both committed to innovation and inclusivity. This means that by combining forces with Giant, we can give Skedaddle customers access to the best possible equipment for their cycling adventures, whether you’re headed out on a leisurely ride through the vineyards, tackling a classic mountain pass, or crushing some challenging singletrack trail.
Giant Hire Bikes On Skedaddle Holidays
On the majority of our holidays, Skedaddle riders have access to a full quiver of Giant hire bikes that accommodate all the different types of riding levels, conditions, and terrain found on our trips. Whether you prefer a road bike, gravel bike, hybrid bike, mountain bike, or even e-bike, we are committed to making sure you have access to a bike that is right for you!
Fully backed by the resources and knowledge at Giant, Skedaddle’s expert guides and support team are always on hand to ensure that all your bike needs are met when out enjoying one of our holidays.
Even if you own your own bike (or three), hiring one on your next cycling holiday can be a lot of fun! It’s a great way to test-ride a bike to see if it’s one you might like to buy for yourself, as well as try out some new bike technology like electric mountain bikes! What’s not to like about that?
