Kids Activities

Our kids' sessions range from activities for children as young as two up to 16 years. They're perfect for those learning to ride a bike, beginners, through to more experienced riders who want to develop their skills with our experienced coaches.

We offer a number of other skills sessions where adult and youth riders train together. For more information on these sessions please see the discipline specific pages.
