Bikeability
Freedom, adventure, the road to enjoyment and confidence on 2 (or 3) wheels, that’s Bikeability.
We are a national award winning Bikeability Training Provider working with Lancashire County Council to deliver cycling training from children aged 4 all the up to young people aged 16.
To deliver our Bikeability programme we work with our schools to deliver during the school year. Our Bikeability programme begins with Bikeability Balance at Reception or Year 1, moves to Bikeability Fix in year 5 or 6, Bikeability Levels 1 and 2 in year 5 or 6, then culminates in Bikeability Level 3 in secondary school.
To find out more about our Bikeability programme, or to enquire about available spaces, please email sports@southribble.gov.uk.
You can learn more about Bikeability on their website.
