Course

About the course

Courses are being run as follows:

  • 09:00 - 12:00, Monday 7th April 2025

Please follow the screens to book.

Bikeability Level 1 is an off road course and is suitable for those who have just learned to ride and no longer use stabilisers. Our instructors develop road cycling and safety skills through explanation, demonstration and practical exercises off road in preparation for our Bikeability Level 2 on road training.

 The instructors, during the training, will introduce the 'core functions' set out in the National Standard for Cycling:

  1.    Observation         
  2.   Communication
  3.    Priorities  
  4.    Positioning

Bikeability Level 1 Cycle Training improves balance and control skills and takes place in a traffic-free area. Through a series of fun exercises and games, trainees practise riding one-handed, looking all around, stopping with control, sharing space, manoeuvring at low speed, using gears if they have them and turning with control. Trainees also learn a simple bike check. 

At the end of the course, trainees receive a badge and a certificate.

This course will go ahead whatever the weather, so please send your child with appropriate clothing (particularly waterproofs and gloves).

Cycle

Please make sure your child's cycle is in working condition

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.

 

Helmet

Please make sure your child's helmet is correctly fitted

Although the law does not compel cyclists of any age to wear helmets, 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.'

For this reason, we have made it compulsory for everyone participating in cycle training to wear a helmet. Instructors will be wearing helmets. The helmet should conform to to EN1078 or EN1080, please check for a label inside the helmet.

Just before the course, please make sure your child's helmet is correctly fitted - this 1 minute video shows how.

If there are any circumstances which may interfere with your child's ability to wear a helmet, please tell us below.
