The location of the Cycling place was perfect, right by the parking and before the hiking begins. The owner was so great from explaining everything, good prices to even taking pictures of us. They had a selection of bikes that were very useful to accommodate the variety of people in our group. The bikes definitely enhanced our trip by getting us place to place in such a timely manner. Stop by without hesitation!

The family that owns this bike rental shop is amazing. It is the closest one we found to the lake where you can get to the Castle quickly and around the lake. The owner is one of the kindest most generous people we’ve met so far on our trip!!! very professional and accommodating. He Even arranged to come back after his closing time at 6:00 pm to meet us at 7 PM to have him meet us so we can return the bikes. Could not recommend this place enough! The rates were absolutely fair and amazing bikes and it was one of the best things we did over in the Lake Bled area....

We heard how amazing lake bled was. We decided to put it on the trip plan. When we got her we ran into Polkadot by accident. We decided to ask about renting bikes to tour the lake, we were soo glad we did. Miha was super awesome! Helpful, informative and kind. He worked out a great plan for us that really allowed us to make the most of our time at lake Bled. They were beyond kind and made our day super fun! I will be back for sure. Thanks to the team for helping, it made our day.

Made a last minute decision to rent mountain bikes and get a guide to show us around. Aljosa (hope I spelled it right!) was the perfect guide. He took us on a loop that included a little bit of everything, from dirt roads through the pastures, to flowy singletrack downhill, to cobbly exposed limestone descents, and everything in between. The fully suspended Scott bikes were practically new and very capable. We did about 22 miles and 2500 of elevation and it took about 3.5 hours, which included many breaks for photos and water. Highly recommend Polka Dot Bicycles!

If you want to rent professional and good bikes, than please go here! The owner is really friendly and helpfull. We rented two scott mountainbikes for a day and made an amazing trip to Mostrajna from Bled. The bikes were great and for a good price. We also got helmets and a lock. The owner helped us to plan a nice route.

Thanks a lot for your impressions, we are very glad that you and your great group of friends enjoyed Lake Bled with our bikes! You all look fantastic at pics, we didn't had guests that rented seven beautiful cruisers at the same time before. Thank you!

Thanks for visiting us and renting our bikes. There is still so much more to explore around Lake Bled, so hopefully you'll manage to come to Bled again.

I rented a carbon Scott Addict from Polka Dot Cycling for one day of road cycling. They allowed me to pick it up the day prior so I'd have a full day's use - included a lock and helmet at no extra charge. Nice bike! The shop was conveniently located next to the ice hockey rink at the castle end of the lake (about 1 block form our hotel, Park Hotel).
I did a 36 mile loop I found on Ride with GPS up to Mojstrana (BEAUTIFUL!) then extended up to Kranjska Gora, did and out and back up the Vršič Pass (amazing with 24 cobblestoned switchbacks), then, because I was so close to both, did an out and back to both the Austrian border and then to the Italian border, back to Mojstrana and then completed the original loop back to Bled. 77 miles total with over 6,000 feet of climbing. A lot of this is on a paved "rails-to-trails" path.

Hi,
unfortunately we don’t have them in our fleet and I’m not sure if someone else has them in Bled. Sorry.
Kind regards,
