Learn to Ride
It’s never too late to learn to ride a bicycle.
If you have never learned, or could use a quick refresher, join this 6 week course to guide you through the process of learning to ride a bicycle.
Our friendly instructors will help you learn an introduction to bike and safety equipment, mounting and dismounting, scooting and braking, pedal ready and go, stopping safely and making the bike go where you want it to in a large open space.
The course will be a small group of people who are all learning to ride a bicycle.
When the group is ready, you will move on to making the bike go where you want it to with more accuracy, observation and signalling, emergency stopping, use of gears to help make riding easier, riding with other people and riding in public spaces.
Don’t worry if you don’t have a bicycle. We will supply a bike and helmet for you, and you can keep the helmet at the end of the course.
For those aged 16+
£24 per 6 week course
