A summary
Not having a bike, will not stop you getting involved, all children and young people will receive a free refurbished bike to take home and keep. Bikeability Level 1&2 days runs from 10am to 3pm and is designed to help riders develop the confidence and practical skills needed for everyday cycling on local roads. Participants will learn how to start and stop safely, signal clearly, choose correct road positioning, and deal with junctions, parked cars, and light traffic. Training is delivered in small groups by qualified instructors to ensure individual support. A lunch is provided midway through the day, giving riders time to rest before continuing with further on-road practice in the afternoon to reinforce and build on the skills learned. Please note: Helmets, Bikes (if required) Hi-Vis's and other safety equipment will be provided.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
