Get cycling in 2025! Make new friends! Begin your biking journey...
Join Anna and Sumayra in Cringle Park to learn how to cycle - or boost your confidence if you're new or returning back to cycling.
We have a small fleet of bikes, helmet and a trike available to use for the sessions.
When : Wednesday mornings on multiple dates throughout May, June, July, September + October [book a ticket for each session you would like to attend]
Time : 10-10.30am and 10.30-11am*
Where : Cringle Park 5-a-side football pitch [next to the children's play area]
*feel free to book onto both time slots, although beginners often feel that 30 minutes is long enough when they're just getting started!

Anna and Sumayra, [qualified and super friendly insturctors] will support you through the following:
>> Introduction to the bike and helmet
>> Getting on and off the bike
>> Beginning to scoot on the bike and learning how to brake
>> Learning to use the pedals
>> Making the bike go where you want it to [in a large open space]
For those who can already ride and would like to progress skills for road training or to boost confidence, we can also deliver Level 1 of the Bikeability course.
Both options are 100% off road and contained within our safe space in the park :)

>> This is a Big Bike Revival event for Station South kindly insured and funded by Cycling UK who ask for consent to contact you after the event to ask you a few questions about your cycling habits. Please let Anna or Sumayra know before the session if you don't want to be contacted.
>> Sessions are for those aged 16+
>> We will supply a bike and helmet for you, but you can bring your own if you’d prefer
>> There will be other participants on the course who are also there to learn to ride a bike
>> If weather is adverse, please check your inbox the morning of the session as we may cancel if it's really horrible
Friendly notice! If for any reason your circumstances change and you can no longer join us, please cancel your slot on EventBrite [this is a single click through your ticket confirmation email] with as much notice as possible and we can give your space to someone else. The size of the groups are extremely limited and although free to you [woohoo!] they come with cost and planning on our part and we love to see all places being enjoyed to their full potential. Thank you.
