If you need to borrow a bike for the sessions please contact robin@leapsports.org at least 2 weeks before the sessions begin.
Session 1 - 15/04/2024 - the first session will focus on building confidence steering, signalling, changing gear, and looking over your shoulder whilst cycling along by playing some cycling games on Glasgow Green. This will help the instructors get an idea of everyone's cycling ability and what you'd like to learn so they can adapt future sessions accordingly. The following sessions are provisional and will be adapted based on the groups needs and ability.
Session 2 - 22/04/2024 - the second session will involve a longer ride on a traffic free route where participants can practice what they learnt last week.
Session 3 - 29/04/2024 - the third session will provide an introduction to cycling on the road delivered in a low, slow traffic environment. It will cover road positioning, observations and priorities at junctions.
Session 4 - 06/05/2024 - the fourth session will involve cycling on quiet low traffic streets practicing what we learnt last week.
Session 5 - 13/05/2024 - the fifth session will cover how to plan a cycle route using maps and apps to minimise time cycling on busy roads so we can enjoy the journey!
Session 6 - 20/05/2024 - the final session will involve riding the route you planned last week!
