Ditch the Stabilisers - Kids' Learn to Cycle Session

This session is designed for children aged 4+ to help them learn how to ride a bike independently. It will be led by local cycling coaches and volunteers.

Bikes and helmets are available to borrow for free as part of the session or you can bring your own. All riders must wear a helmet to take part in the sessions. Please note, we only have pedal bikes suitable for ages 4/5 upwards (16").

Please ensure that children are wearing suitable shoes and clothing for cycling and the weather conditions. The sessions will continue in wet weather and will only be cancelled if a weather warning is in place (e.g storm), all participants will be contacted in advance if this is the case.

Where possible please remove any stabilisers from your child's bike before attending - stabilisers will not be used as part of these sessions. All riders will start on our balance bikes and progress to pedal bikes once they have mastered balancing. We strongly recommend booking a minimum of two 'Ditch the Stabilisers' sessions as most children will need this amount of time to learn.

This session will take place on the main cycle track.
