Adult Cycling Courses
If you’ve never ridden a bike before or would like to boost your confidence in cycling – these courses are for you!
The objectives of these courses are to build confidence in a safe and friendly environment. We love encouraging adults to take up cycling and to prepare them for the world of cycling, whether it be on our guided rides or further afield.
Adult courses can be mixed or for women only, depending on demand.
Absolute Beginners – Women Only – £60 for three sessions
This is a course for women who have never ridden or learnt to ride – you don’t even need to own a bike! We will give you the skills and confidence you require to take part in traffic free rides, all whilst being in a fun and friendly environment. Although these are group classes, there is a high instructor to participant ratio of 1:3.
There are no upcoming events
Absolute Beginners – Mixed group – £60 for three sessions
This is a course for those who have never ridden or learnt to ride – you don’t even need to own a bike! We will give you the skills and confidence you require to take part in traffic free rides, all whilst being in a fun and friendly environment. Although these are group classes, there is a high instructor to participant ratio of 1:3.
Confidence Booster – £60 for three 90-minute sessions
If you can ride for 50 meters or more but lack confidence, then this is for you! Maybe you have only just learnt to cycle – maybe you’ve been out of practice for a while and would love to develop your skills. By the end of the course you will have done this and more, learning and gaining a better understanding of how to use your bike effectively, hone your skills and confidence and get you ride-ready for taking part in longer distance rides on your own or as part of a group.
Road Skills – Mixed Group – £75 for three 90min sessions (new pilot course!)
A 3 session course aiming to improve your knowledge, skills and confidence to ride on the roads. The course will include how to set off, ride and stop safely, share the roads with other road users and negotiate junctions.
In a small group of up to 3 people, the instructor will lead you step-by-step, starting in a traffic-free area to check skills before moving onto quiet minor roads and then busier roads.
To attend you must be confident at starting, stopping and riding in a straight line. The ability to look behind and signal would be of benefit.
The course will be led by a qualified National Standards for Cycle Training instructor.
(Please note, if the initial assessment identifies that you do not yet have the required skills you will not be able to progress onto the road, however we will discuss options for you to gain the required skills)
Bike Hire available for an extra £6 per session.
Advanced – £90 for two sessions and one ride
Traffic free routes are a doddle – let’s get you road-ready! Build your confidence and take on the rewarding challenge of riding safely with traffic. We will teach you everything you need to polish already established skills and to be confident on both suburban and commuter routes.
One-to-one Cycle Training – £50 per hour
If one of our regular courses is too far in the future, fully booked or not at a time that you can make – don’t worry – you have another option. One to one (or one to two if you have a friend that also needs to learn) is available on demand. Having the full attention of our instructor, rather than in a group, will allow us to tailor the content and focus of your training around your individual needs.
