        Description

        This summer, we’re excited to launch a brand new cycling initiative supporting young people to become more active, confident and comfortable riding their bikes. All whilst having fun and making new friends during the summer holidays! 


        *Note* These are sessions for kids and young people only (parents can drop them off)


        What’s involved?

        Each three-hour session includes:

        • Learn to Ride lessons for complete beginners
        • Cycling skills development workshops (for those who can pedal) to grow confidence and control
        • Guided group rides, tailored to participants’ abilities, pace and energy
        • Healthy snacks provided to rest, recharge, and get to know each other


        We’re offering sessions tailored to age groups so every child can learn and develop at their own pace among likeminded peers:

        • Ages 6–8
        • Ages 9–11
        • Teen girls aged 12–16


        This summer, whether your child is learning how to pedal, ready for their first ride or eager to build on their skills, we’ve got a group that fits.

        No prior cycling experience is needed—we provide the encouragement and equipment to help everyone feel safe and supported.


        Where?

        All sessions will run from our Women on Wheels Hub in Govanhill - we’ll be using our cycle training space and local Southside Parks. Drop off and pick up will be from our hub. Drop off 9.45am, pick up 1pm


        Cost:

        We want everyone to be able to take part. These sessions cost only £5 per child/young person. However, should the cost be a barrier to you, please do get in touch by emailing families@womenonwheels.org.uk or calling 07927357140 and we will try out best to accommodate.


        What to bring:

        • Just bring yourselves!
        • We can provide bikes and helmets
        • If you'd prefer to bring your own bike, that's absolutely fine—just make sure it’s in good working order
        • Water bottle, snacks, sun cream


        What’s great about these sessions:

        These sessions are a brilliant way to spend time outdoors over the summer holidays - have fun, meet new friends, learn new skills, and experience the freedom of cycling
