- The bike and related equipment must be owned by the company
- The bike is used primarily for qualifying journeys
- Ownership of the equipment is not transferred to the employee during the loan period
- The offer of the use of a loaned or provided cycle is available across the whole workforce.
A qualifying journey for an employee means a journey, or part of a journey, between his/her home and workplace or between one workplace and another, that is in connection with the performance of their duties of employment.
Primarily means more than 50% of the use of the cycle and safety equipment must involve a qualifying journey.
Employees do not need to keep logs of the journeys but it must be made clear that a taxable benefit will arise if the cycle/equipment is not used primarily for qualifying journeys.
Our advice would be to still keep logs for all cycle/equipment
use just in case HMRC were to investigate, so that you could easily prove they were primarily used for qualifying journeys.
