We deliver Bikeability Levels 1, 2 and 3 as well as learn to ride and Bikeability Balance in Bedfordshire schools. These courses are free for children to attend.

If you’re a school, please use the form below to book and find out next steps. If you’re a parent or carer and your school has already booked, please have a look at the Information for Parents.

For more information about the Bikeability scheme and details of the different levels, please follow the link below.

Individual cycle training & school holiday courses

We occasionally run courses for adults and children on a one-to-one basis helping them to discover the joys of cycling more.

Do get in touch if we don’t have anything listed and we’ll see if we can arrange something. If you’ve missed out on cycle training at your school, we may also be able to run a holiday course.

What our schools are saying

“A thoroughly enjoyable four days at our school. The trainers were brilliant and approachable! Had a great teaching style with lots of encouragement.”

Sutton Lower School

“Fabulous – very anxious children came away excited and keen to continue practising what they had learnt”

Thurleigh Primary

Meet Chris – one of Bedfordshire instructors

Chris has been teaching Bikeability for more than ten years, enthusing children and adults to cycle more. Over that time, he’s developed into one of our most experienced and qualified members of the team with responsibility for training new instructors as a level 3 instructor. Chris is also a qualified bike mechanic.

“Wonderful and so incredibly patient. Chris has worked wonders in helping me gain a little confidence and that’s really very much appreciated.” 1-1 course participant
