From March 2011-Feb 2012 Dunbar Cycling Group and Sustaining Dunbar received funding from Cycling Scotland for the “What’s Stopping You?” project which aimed to inspire local people to get their unused bikes out of the back of the garage.
In return for a written pledge to take up cycling regularly, Sustaining Dunbar helped with the costs (up to £25) required to get local folk’s bikes out on the road more often. The project offered cycle training, classes on how to look after your bike and set up the Bike Workshop at Hallhill where cyclists can gather on a Saturday morning to tinker with their bikes with mechanics on hand to advise.
