点评:Woods Bikes and Brews, Lyndhurst (The Woods Cyclery)
Walking in the New Forest in winter has its attractions, but cycling can be better as it generally gets you from one cold place to another more quickly.
Admittedly, this emporium is in fact the only bicycle hire shop in the area but, even if there were others, it would be the naturally best choice. As the name suggests, the business includes a small café selling the usual range of hot and cold drinks, savoury and sweet morsels, and offers you a chance for a final warming before setting forth. It is a useful diversification from just being a cycle hire centre.
The café is where your initial conversation with the guys about what would be the most appropriate bikes can take place. Once decided, you go to the adjacent part of the shop and try out the bikes. You will be guided at every step as the guys are very concerned for your comfort and safety. Then, once astride and ready to pedal with all adjustments made by the concerned staff (‘the guys’), you can take further advantage of their local knowledge and be advised on the routes to take.
During the discussion, the subject of a visit to a local pub was raised and proved to be a worthwhile destination.
A bike’s worth of local knowledge is always valuable.

冬天在新森林里散步很有吸引力,但骑自行车更好,因为它通常能让你更快地从一个寒冷的地方到达另一个寒冷的地方。
不可否认,这家商场实际上是该地区唯一的自行车租赁店,但即使还有其他,它自然也是最好的选择。顾名思义,这家商店包括一家小咖啡馆,出售常见的热饮和冷饮、咸味和甜味小吃,并让你有机会在出发前最后暖和一下。这是一个有用的多元化选择,而不仅仅是一家自行车租赁中心。
在咖啡馆,你可以和店员们进行初步交谈,了解哪种自行车最合适。一旦决定,你就可以去商店的相邻部分试骑自行车。店员们非常关心你的舒适和安全,他们会指导你每一步。然后,一旦跨上自行车并准备好踩踏板,相关工作人员(“伙计们”)会进行所有调整,您就可以进一步利用他们的本地知识,并获得有关路线的建议。
在讨论过程中,提出了参观当地酒吧的话题,事实证明这是一个值得一去的地方。
自行车上的本地知识总是有价值的。
