Overview
Fun Skills is suitable for riders who have recently learnt to ride without stabilisers and younger riders who enjoy cycling, want to develop and improve their skills and have some fun while doing it. Fun skills are a method of introducing riders to basic cycle control using a variety of practices including:
Follow the leader; Looking behind; Braking; Riding around and between cones; Slow Race; Passing bean bags; Riding with one hand; Negotiating obstacles.
Adults do not need to stay for Fun Skills, though of course are always welcomed. Group size for this session is a little larger (15) to allow for more game play. If the instructors are happy with the skills on display the group may go for a short cycle traffic free ride after playing games for the first part of the session.
For riders who have enjoyed this session it might be of interest to look at our childrens cycling club Fairlands Cycling Club which meets on Friday evenings during term time.
