5 bicycle repair and inflation stations: an initiative to benefit cyclists and local heritage
The Forez region has a new attraction for cycling enthusiasts! The “L’aventure du rail” route, a cultural and natural walk linking Saint-Marcellin-en-Forez to Estivareilles, is now equipped with ALTAO® Fix’Air bicycle repair and inflation stations. These service stations, installed at strategic points along the route, offer cyclists a simple and effective way of maintaining their bikes while exploring the region in complete peace of mind. This project, the fruit of collaboration between Loire Forez Agglomération and Altinnova, illustrates a strong commitment to soft mobility and sustainable facilities.
Practical, durable equipment for all cyclists and cycle tourists
The ALTAO® Fix’Air cycle service station stands out for its versatile design and functionality. Designed to be a complete assistance point, it includes robust and secure tools such as a bike pump with pressure gauge, screwdrivers, spanners and other essential tools for bike maintenance.
These stations are spread across 5 key sites, including Saint-Marcellin-en-Forez, Périgneux, Estivareilles and Usson-en-Forez. These stops are a breath of fresh air for cyclists on the route. Made in France, they showcase local expertise and reduce the carbon footprint of their production.
Another advantage? Customisation. Each station can be adapted to the specific needs of local authorities, from the colour to the addition of a logo. Made in France, robust and available free of charge, they embody both quality and respect for environmental issues.
A route enhanced by modern, strategic equipment
“L’aventure du rail” is a unique initiative that highlights the natural and historical heritage of Forez. By installing these ALTAO® Fix’Air stations, the route managers have been able to enhance the appeal of this route by offering a practical service to cyclists.
The strategic position of each station along the route means that users can benefit from technical support without having to leave their route. Whether near the Usson-en-Forez lake or the Quai des Arts, each station becomes a valuable meeting point and assistance point. These facilities are also a response to the challenges of sustainable mobility, encouraging more and more visitors to adopt cycling as a means of getting around.
Conclusion: A step forward for cyclists and the region
With the installation of these ALTAO® Fix’Air stations, Forez is positioning itself as a prime destination for cycling enthusiasts. These facilities, which combine practicality, durability and customisation, enhance the visitor experience while promoting local know-how.
