Youth cycling
Building skills and confidence by delivering fun coaching sessions
Saturdays 25th October and 1st November 9:30 - 11:00 hrs
Join us this Autumn half term holiday for some more youth cycling sessions. In these sessions our club coaches will help build skills and confidence on the bike. We will be using the newly created MTB & Cyclo Cross course at Garon Park. The recommended age group is 9 -16 years, but younger riders have successfully taken part by pedalling above their height!

Open to all
16 years old or younger? You can join us
Our sessions are aimed at young riders, aged 16 years and under who can already ride a bike and are looking to develop their skills on the bike.
All you need is your own road worthy bike, helmet and suitable clothing for the weather on the day. Road bike, gravel bike, MTB or BMX all welcome.
Beyond the sessions
What happens afterwards?
After you have attended our cycling sessions, we hope to have excited you enough to see you again for future sessions but for those who want a bit more, you can join the Club (and British Cycling) . Visit our Join the Wheelers page for further details. You will soon buddy up with others your age!
By joining the Wheelers, you will get access to the clubs resources and events throughout the year no matter what your interests on the bike are. The attached "Whats next" pdf document below gives you an idea of what is available.
You can then ride with other youth members and our ride leaders on a weekend club ride on the lanes of the area.
