How it works

The Evans Cycles Ride2Work programme makes it as simple as possible for you to take maximum advantage of the benefits on offer through 7 straightforward steps:

• Employer becomes a member of the Evans Cycles Ride2Work programme

• Employee chooses bike and accessories from Evans Cycles

• Employer asks Evans Cycles for a voucher to cover the retail price of the purchase

• Evans Cycles invoices the employer for the voucher amount

• Voucher is posted directly to employee’s home

• Employee redeems voucher in any Evans Cycles store or the Evans Cycles mail order service

• Employee’s salary sacrifice begins in his or her next salary

It really is as simple as that!

Important points to be aware of:

• Bicycles bought under the Ride2Work programme must be used primarily for travelling to and from work, and they must be suitable for that purpose
• VAT may be reclaimed on bicycles if they are purchased to implement a green travel plan, reduce car use or increase staff health levels
• Leavers or retirees from your company become responsible for any outstanding amounts. These are usually subtracted from final salary payments, and become a taxable benefit
• At the end of the lease period, the employer may transfer title of the goods to the employee
