Jersey Sport sessions

Jersey Sport are running various sessions to help you build skills and confidence, and get the community riding.

Cycle Mechanics Basics

This course will help you get to know cycles inside and out. You’ll discover how different parts of the bike work together, learn to check if a cycle is safe to ride, and practice essential skills such as performing an M check and fixing a puncture. 

This course is primarily “hands on” and attendees will be expected to get stuck in - hands will get dirty and greasy! 

Open to anyone age 10+ (under 13s must be accompanied by an adult)

Dates: Thursday 18 December OR Monday 22 December
Time: 18:00-19:30
Cost: £12

Sign up to secure your spot.

Bike Bus Leader Training

Bike Bus Leader Training will equip you with all the skills and information to prepare you to lead a Bike Bus in your local area. 

The training provides the knowledge and practical experience needed to support or lead a Bike Bus — a means of transporting a group of riders, typically children riding to school, on cycles, with pick up points along the way. 

The session runs on Saturday 6 December. Find out more.
