We have had a great week helping home educated riders complete their Bikeability Level 1 & 2. We had plenty of water breaks and lots of fun cycling and learning new skills. 😊🚲

Learning to ride a bike is a major milestone in a child's life, filled with challenges and triumphs. One effective approach to make this journey smoother? Ditch the traditional stabilisers!

Most cycle instructors agree that it's best to start with balance before moving on to pedalling unaided. This method offers numerous benefits:

✨ Improved control: Your child will learn to slow down and stop properly right from the start.
🌍 Better stability: Stabilisers can be misleading, making bikes unstable on bumpy or sloping ground. This can create habits that are hard to break later.
🧠 Simpler learning process: Removing stabilisers lets your child focus on balance and steering first, making the transition to pedalling much easier.

We love getting reviews from our riders parents.

Summer holiday Bikeability cycling courses

Did your child miss out on their Bikeability at school?
Bikeability levels 1&2 and level 3 sessions are available.
Give them a life skill they will never forget. From basic skills to advanced journeys, we’ve got your child covered.

Have they mastered the art of balance and turning with no stabilisers? Then they are ready for Level 1.

Level 2 can feel like the biggest step for both you and your child – it’s cycling on the actual road! Don't worry, your child will feel confident and safe in no time at all.

Level 3 can equip your child with the skills needed to stay safe in more challenging urban situations and learn more advanced skills.

The first safety certified helmet made with Sikh kids in mind, many parents face finding helmets for their kids a struggle. The unique design and structure of this cycle helmet allows for comfort and superior fit. Fantastic idea.

Loving the new cycle infrastructure on my commute to Stevenage this week.

A gorgeous day to be learning to cycle and learning new skills. 3 young riders took part in Bikeability level 1, learning to control their bikes, steering, braking, looking all around and cycling one handed using fun games to achieve this. Lots of fun in the sun.

Amazing Saturday, I had taught this young rider to cycle when she was 5, we then started the bike skills for Bikeability level 1. Soon after she was cycling on the roads completing her level 2 and now she has smashed the advanced road cycling level 3 course. It's lovely to be part of a cycling journey.

We have had a wonderful Easter teaching children to cycle independently. Some riders went into learning how to control their bike with fun skills. We also had cyclists completing their bikeability Level 1 and learnt new bike skills.
