There are a number of great opportuinties coming available to encourage more staff taking up the option of cycling to work.
Transport for Greater Manchester are looking to help remove what potential commuter cyclists could see as barriers towards them taking to their bikes rather than their cars with them offering free bike checking, free basic maintenance training, national standard cycle training and a bike loan scheme.
Information can be obtained from here http://www.tfgm.com/cycling/
Apparently there is more stuff in the pipeline to support organisations so keeping key decision makers aware of what's unfolding here has got to be good for all.
I personally am involved with the Dr Bike and Cycle Maintenance sessions that employers/employees can access, all aimed at getting people in the saddle. If you think your organisation would be interested in accessing these free sessions to support their employees, drop me an email via the-cycle-works@live.co.uk
Cheers
