Learn to Ride with Travel Telford
The Travel Telford team are supporting the KOG Community Cycling Project by working with five schools in the project area of Ketley Bank, Oakengates and St Georges, plus neighbouring schools that have children who attend from those areas.
The team are providing Bike Try Out events to encourage people to have a go on a bike and to start the conversation around cycling. Maybe you haven’t ridden a bike since you were a child, maybe you never had the opportunity to learn or your child needs a helping hand to start cycling on two wheels.
Travel Telford are also offering Family Bike Maintenance sessions and their popular Dr Bike service, where local families can have their bikes repaired or given a check over by a qualified mechanic, ensuring they are road worthy and ready for adventure!
This compliments the Bikeability cycle training which all schools have taken part in to equip Year 5 and Year 6 children with the skills to cycle safely in their local environment.
Learn to Ride Sessions
The team are also providing Learn to Ride sessions for children, adults and families from Ketley Bank, Oakengates and St Georges from the Bike Hub in Telford Town Park in late September, to equip you with the skills to handle a bike safely and ride confidently on two wheels. Riding a bike is a life skill but we understand varying circumstances mean that not everyone has the opportunity to learn.
