 Bikeability Level 2 teaches skills for cycling in traffic on quieter roads. Your child will learn how to independently:

  •  make good and frequent observations
  •  choose and maintain the most suitable riding position in the road
  •  communicate intentions clearly to others
  •  follow priorities, particularly at junctions

Trainees learn on roads with different traffic condiions but within a risk-assessed area. The course will begin in the playground where the instructor can assess the trainee’s current level of cycling skills. The training will then progress on to the road. Our Instructors develop road cycling skills through explanation, demonstration and practical exercises on the road, with individual and group feedback.  At the end of the course, each trainee receives a badge, handbook and an assessment certificate. The certificate will help you with the further development of your child’s cycling skills.

This course will go ahead whatever the weather, so please send your child with appropriate clothing (particularly waterproofs and/or sunscreen applied in advance).

Location
Please meet the instructors by the fenced off area of car park near Pool in the Park (What 3 Words - ///glove.incomes.crazy). The instructors will be wearing high-vis jackets.

Skill

Skills the rider needsyou need before starting the course

Before your child attends the first session please ensure that they can:
  • look behind without losing control
  • take one hand off the handlebar without losing control (unless riding the type of adapted bike that means that it is not necessary for signalling)

If your child is a little shaky on these skills, Instructors will give them help, but if your child cannot undertake them by the end of the first session then it will not be safe for them to go on the road with traffic.

Please tick the box before continuing:

Your child's age

Your child's year group

This training is for children in year 6 and above. Please confirm which year group your child is in.

Your child's cycle

Please ensure your child's cycle is in good working order

Your child's cycle must be roadworthy.  Could you check it before the training, please.

The ABC check (external link, opens in a new window) is the quickest check, and the M check (external link, opens in new window) is more thorough. BMX bikes must have both brakes fitted.

Our Instructors are authorised to make minor adjustments, with your child's consent, such as adjusting saddle height, but they are not cycle mechanics.

We may also need to lock the bikes in case we go inside so please bring a suitable bike lock.

Please note, it is illegal for someone aged under 14 years to ride an electrically-assisted pedal cycle on the public highway, so such bikes cannot be accepted on to the course.

Helmet

Please check your child's helmet is correctly fitted

British law does not compel cyclists of any age to wear helmets but rule 59 of the Highway Code states: 'You should wear a cycle helmet that conforms to current regulations, is the correct size and securely fastened. Evidence suggests that a correctly fitted helmet will reduce your risk of sustaining a head injury in certain circumstances.'

We recommend that your child wears a helmet. Please also check to see if your school has rules about wearing helmets.

If your child will be wearing a cycle helmet please make sure it is correctly fitted (external link, opens in a new window) prior to the course.

Medical needs

Does your child have any medical needs?

This information will help us to ensure we address all welfare needs. Please note, if your child needs to carry medication whilst cycling please make sure they have something to put it in.
