National Standards Cycle Training is for everyone.

It teaches the techniques and skills that give you the confidence to ride on today’s roads. You will learn how to integrate with traffic rather than fear it, and also the best way to teach children to ride on the roads.

All cyclists can learn from this course, from the least confident to the regular road user.

This full day course is absolutely FREE and funded by the Bikeability Trust . You need to be 18 years of age or above.

What does the course involve?

  • A traffic free session for skills assessment
  • ‘On road’ training on quiet roads
  • Busier road training when confident
  • The best way to ride with children

What do I need?

  • A roadworthy bike
  • A helmet
  • A drink and any snacks you may want
  • Packed lunch if required or lunch can be bought at Churston Broadway
  • Clothing appropriate to the weather

We will meet at the overflow car park at Broadsands, where we will have sectioned off a traffic free area.

After practising a few basic skills, we will head out onto the quiet roads around Hookhills to learn the basics of road positioning and riding safely.

At the end of the day, there will be the option of trying out the techniques on busier roads.

Time 9:30am to 4:30pm
