Cyclestreets.net is a brilliant little website for bicyclists. Just enter where you are and where you want to go and it will take you a proper cyclists route, tell you the distance, how quiet or otherwiseit will be and how many calories you will burn completing it.
This is extraordinary. You can actually choose a route to avoid unnecessary hills. Excellent for the part-time cyclist!

Very patient and knowledgeable crew. Kudos. Visited 3 times before buying a bike from them, yet every time felt the same. Customers are well respected.
I received much better service at this independent bike shop than I did yesterday at another bike shop. I bought a brand new bike. They will give it a free service. Very helpful people.
Decathlon Slough
Unit B Westgate Retail Park Slough SL1 5PS GB, Slough SL1 5PS, UK – 01753 873810
Was very excited to see a Decathlon finally opening in Slough and had the chance to visit yesterday. Has the same great prices as you expect from Decathlon though a slightly smaller range than in bigger stores like Reading. However, for me the most ridiculous thing is that despite it being a sports shop and them even offering bike repair in store, there isn't actually any bike racks there, so you need to find a lamp post to lock up your bike. Considering the message "With the passion of cycling and sport in general being high in Slough" on the webpage of the store it seems clear that customers would want to cycle to the store. I clearly wasn't the only one facing this issue looking around outside the store. Sort this out and I'll happily increase my rating!
Fantastic service. Went in for a Bike and thanks to Ian came out with exactly what i needed. He spent time going through everything that I would need and discussing the various options to make sure the bike fit my needs. They also put all the accessories on the bike for me so there was no need for me to look for the right tools as they do it all in house for you.

Cycle Hub Slough
Brunel Way, Slough SL1 1XL, UK – 020 3318 5944
Easy to use, cheap, extremely safe. Only disadvantage is that is has lockers but no personal available to give you the keys (yeah, weird), at least the 2-3 times that I wanted to use lockers and nobody replied to the contact phone number. Anyway, good stuff.
Halfords - Slough Store
380 Bath Rd, Slough SL1 6JA, UK – 01628 603312
The store has most things needed for your car. I went in to get a dash cam but they couldn't fit on the day. The appointment given was suited to me and was on time. Staff are friendly and really helpful. The fitting done on the dash cam was great and I would definitely use the fitting service again for any other items that are required.
Well trained, knowledgeable and skilled staff. Brilliant operation and at a cost effective price
