This engaging bike riding skills session is designed for children aged 8 to 15 who already ride independently and want to improve their confidence and safety on the bike. The relaxed, off-road environment provides a fun and supportive space for kids to refresh core cycling skills with no pressure.
Participants will enjoy practical, real-world riding lessons focused on safety and control, guided by experienced instructors from The Pedal Set Go team. Parents are encouraged to attend and support their children throughout the session.
This is an excellent opportunity for young riders to build confidence, learn essential road safety skills, and have fun with peers in a safe setting.
The workshop covers a range of important cycling skills including:
- Bike safety checks (ABC quick check)
- Starting, stopping, and riding in a group
- Balance, control, and riding on different surfaces
- Signalling, scanning, and road awareness
- Using gears (if applicable)
- Riding in a line and maintaining safe spacing
- Shared path and footpath safety rules
- Confidence games and skill challenges
Children must be able to pedal independently without training wheels and be accompanied by an adult at all times. Participants should bring their own bike, helmet, water bottle, and wear comfortable clothing.
The session takes place at The Coal Loader Centre for Sustainability, located at 2 Balls Head Drive, Waverton, NSW 2060. This venue offers a safe, off-road environment ideal for cycling lessons.
Accessible by car and public transport, the centre provides ample space for children to practice their skills away from busy roads. Parking is available nearby, and the area is family-friendly with easy access for parents and guardians.
This workshop is specifically for children who can already ride a bike independently. Beginners who require training wheels or assistance will have separate sessions later in the year.
Limited places are available, so commitment to attending with your child is essential. Children must be accompanied by an adult throughout the session to ensure safety and support.
