Bike Hire Isle of Wight

Good afternoon

A quick question if I may, does anyone know of decent bike hire on the Isle of Wight?

I'm off ther for a weeks holiday at the end of August and wanted to get some riding in unfortunately MrsZippy has put her foot down and tells me there wont be enough room to take the bike (roof taken up with roof box) but if there is a hire shop she's no objection to me riding

any ideas

You could ship your own bike over?

Now there's an idea

downside being shipping it back were going elsewhere for a week afterwards

this lot seem to be the only ones offering road bikes. The problem with the island is that it's 99% set up for recreational family holidays...I did a sportive on the island the other week - it's really fantastic!

if you are really stuck, I take a van over to the island every month - the next trip around mid august - plenty of room for a bike with my deliveries!...probably doesn't help, but the offer's there!
