We will develop those crucial early cycle handling and awareness skills, we will focus on their confidence and enjoy being on a bike, Initially, we remove the pedals to help with balance, and then gradually reintroduce one pedal at a time ensuring your child feels in control rather than the bike. building up confidence and progression to pedalling. Suitable from the age of about 5 years.

There are three Bikeability levels and children will be encouraged and inspired to achieve all three levels, recognising that there is always more to learn and to enjoy on a bike.

Level 1 – From age 6-7, These lessons are conducted off-road and focus is on controlling the bike, looking behind, riding one, avoiding hazards controlling speed, and using gears. Riders also learn to prepare for a journey and check the bicycle's readiness. Ideal for anyone new to cycling in need of some confidence.   

Don't stop at Level 1, We start to deal with real traffic.

Level 2 – From about 9-10 years of age, This level introduces riding with traffic, ideal transitioning from very quiet roads to slightly busier ones. Riders learn to navigate junctions, consider road positioning, communicate with other road users, and prioritize. Skills include overtaking parked cars and adhering to signals, signs, and road markings.
