Why join?

Cycling at an early age means children effortlessly move straight onto a pedal bike and skip the stabiliser stage!

We can access lots of lovely wide paths, exciting flora & fauna, pavements and superb locations to learn new things, meet other parents and see your little ones really enjoy themselves and develop really useful skills.

“Our daughter loved her session and has begun to have much more confidence on her bike. The group was really friendly, the instructors were brilliant and the location was great too.”

“We did some balance biking, drawing, exploring and new games. We’d love to come again.”

What happens in a session?

10mins – parent led bike, helmet adjustment, introductions and warm up

25mins – activity ranging from drawing with chalks, playing/cycling with multi coloured discs, I spy, singing songs, collecting bits of nature and, as parents, generally having a short walk!

Professional bike mechanics, cycling instructors, cycling coaches, parents and child development gurus have devised sessions by applying literally every bit of their expertise to makes sessions inclusive, interactive, fun, friendly and a great way to positively reinforce all sorts of things.
