Lesson Overview: This programme is targeted at children and teenagers with additional needs. It aims to teach children to cycle a two-wheel bike independently. Generally, if a child has the balance to walk unassisted, they can have the balance to cycle.

Parent Involvement: The programme is delivered by a qualified Cycling Ireland instructor from the Cycle Safety School and requires active parental involvement during the sessions. This programme proves invaluable for those taking part providing a great source of exercise and benefits in mobility and independent movement through a lifespan.

Bikes: The trainer will have bikes available, or you can bring your own bike. They do not provide adapted or any specialised bikes.
