Free Cycle Training

Have you recently returned to cycling? Or tried it for the first time? Frome Town Council are offering free bike safety checks and cycle training to support anyone getting out and about on their bike. 

The cycle training will be in groups of up to 5 per session and social distancing will be maintained throughout. There is a choice of adult traffic free training for those who can ride a bike but want to get more confident with steering, braking, signalling and changing gears, and bike rides for those who are confident cycling on quiet roads but would like some coaching on a bike ride including positioning, using junctions, route planning and riding as a family group.

All sessions are free but a £1 booking charge will apply.

Beginners coaching session for adults at the Old Showfield, meet at Frome Cricket Club car park, off Rodden Road BA11 2AT.

In a traffic free setting, build confidence through bike games and practicing using brakes and gears, starting and stopping, approaching junctions, traffic islands, riding with others and more.

Laura, our female instructor, will contact you prior to the session to confirm details with you.

All bikes must be roadworthy with two working brakes. Ride Leaders reserve the right to refuse participants whose equipment is unsafe.
