Novices – for the new or returning rider

This course is delivered in a traffic-free environment and it is for people who can already ride a bike but who are not very confident. Pick up the skills and knowledge you need to go down to the local park or to take a trip out into the countryside.

Improvers – building confidence on the road

Whether you’ve been cycling for a while or you’re returning to cycling, this course will give you the confidence, skills and techniques to negotiate cycling in traffic on the road. The training is delivered on quiet roads with some traffic.

Advanced – one-to-one sessions

Would you like to commute to work by bike but there’s a certain road or roundabout you still find daunting?  You can book a one-to-one session with an instructor on a route of your choice.  They can show you how to tackle busy roads and junctions with ease and confidence. You may have been cycling and using the roads for years but there is always something new to learn.
