Learn to Ride
This course helps to build a child’s confidence whilst improving balance and core strength. The aim is to provide participants with the skills and ability to ride a bike independently. Ideally, riders will bring their own bikes and helmets, but we do have a small number to borrow if we are made aware in advance.
This is open to children from a minimum of 4 years old, to a maximum of 10 years old
Parents/Guardians will be expected to remain with the children for the duration of training
Sessions are 90 minutes long and cost £20 per rider.

Family Rides
This training teaches parents and children to cycle with confidence. It also teaches you how to cycle together; cycling alone as part of a commute is very different.
Routes can be tailored to suit your requirements.
Typically, sessions last 2-3 hours and cost £25 per family

Biker Down
Biker Down is a course aimed at motorcyclists of all ages and experience.
The free course offers people the chance to learn practical skills to help avoid being involved in a crash, as well as essential first-aid training and advice on what to do should they find themselves first on the scene of a crash where someone is injured.
If you were the first on the scene of an accident involving a biker, would you know what to do? Would you know who is most at risk, how to protect the area or whether you should remove the helmet of a downed rider? Actions taken in the first few moments after an accident can be crucial in minimising injuries and can make a real difference to the lives of those involved.
This course is free.
