Telford Bike Hub - 1-2-1 Learn To Ride Sessions

Telford Bike Hub - 1-2-1 Learn To Ride Sessions

These sessions are the similar to our popular group Learn to Ride sessions but are done on a 1-2-1 basis. However these sessions are suitable for children and adults alike from ages 4-99 who would like to learn how to independently ride a bike with pedals.

People who attend our sessions gain skills and build confidence. We do this by lowering the seats and removing the pedals from the bikes. This enables participants to learn the skills with the reassurance of being able to put their feet on the ground if they lose their balance. This helps them to feel safe which builds their confidence. All sessions are held outdoors in a traffic free area.

These 1-2-1 lessons are aimed at beginners who cannot currently ride a two wheeled bike unaided. However they can also be used for existing riders to help build confidence if needed.
Where possible we suggest participants bring their own working bike and helmet. Should this not be possible or appropriate, bikes and helmets can be borrowed for the duration of the session at no extra cost. Participants should bring a drink and wear weather appropriate clothing, such as a rain coat, and sunscreen if required.

The session will start will the removal of stabilisers and pedals to effectively turn the bikes into balance bikes. If possible please remove stabilisers and pedals in advance as this will speed up things at the beginning of the session. If you do manage to remove pedals please remember to bring these along to the session. If you can’t don’t worry as the instructors will have the tools to do this when you arrive. Please arrive 5-10 minutes before the start of your session.

Everyone learns at different rates and there is no guarantee that participation will result in riding. As a rough guide we recommend attending three Learn to Ride sessions.
