More information

All training is delivered by Little Riders professional national cycle instructors who have attended first aid and safeguarding training and have undertaken a Enhanced DBS check.

Who can join? - This course is suitable for children aged 9-16 years old who can confidently ride a bike who would like to learn how to safely ride on the roads.

What will they need? - Children need a road worthy bike (with two working brakes) and a helmet to use during the course. If your child doesn't have a bike or helmet don't worry as we can lend them both items. Simply indicate when booking what equipment you would like to borrow and we will bring it along for them. Children should wear suitable outdoor clothing during the course and bring a drink each day.

What to expect - The course includes Bikeability Level 1 & 2 training.

- DAY 1 (AM) - Bikeability Level 1 aims to develop cycle handling in an off-road environment (playground) and prepare riders for cycling on the road. Riders must be able to cycle (i.e. pedal and glide) to participate in Bikeability Level 1.

- DAY 1 (PM) and DAY 2 - Bikeability Level 2 will develop riders’ skills and confidence for cycling on local single-lane roads and simple junctions with mostly moderate motor traffic flows, preparing riders to deal with short journeys such as cycling to school or the local shops.

Each attendee will receive a nutritious lunch on each day, so please let us know of any dietary requirements when booking so we can cater for them.

Location - This activity will be based at East Norfolk Sixth Form College (Church Lane, Great Yarmouth, NR31 7BQ) on both days. Training will take place on site at the school on the morning of Day 1 and on local roads in the afternoon and on Day 2. Parking is available on site for drop-off and collection each day.
