Oxford University
Oxford is renowned for being a Cycling City, yet so many students shared that it was fear and lack of confidence that was the biggest barrier to getting on a bike.
In order to tackle this and to support students in adjusting to life here and feel empowered to commute and travel safely and swiftly through our streets, we’ve partnered with Oxford University for a number of years and 6 hours of fully funded cycle training is available to all staff and students.
Cycle Training for Children
Whether your child is just starting out, or getting to grips with on road cycling, our Bikeability accredited cycle instructors are here to help the next generation of cyclists gain independence, and confidence on a bike.
Session Locations
All of our sessions are 2 hrs and your first lesson needs to begin at one of several off-road traffic-free locations around Oxford, shown on our interactive map on the left.
This will allow us to assess your current skill level before going any further.
