Gaining Confidence
Teaching a child to ride a bike can be a frustrating experience for parents - we understand! Many families come to us after struggling at home, where tensions rise, confidence dips, and the bike ends up gathering dust. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone - and we’re here to help.
Our Farcycles volunteers specialise in working directly with children, removing the pressure from parents and creating a fun, supportive space where kids can learn at their own pace. With patience, encouragement, and expert guidance, we help children overcome their fears, regain confidence, and rediscover the joy of cycling.
Finding freedom
🚴 Starting from scratch? We begin with balance bike techniques, focusing on stability and control before moving on to pedalling. This makes the transition smoother and stress-free.
🚴 Lost confidence? We break cycling down into small, achievable steps—steering, braking, stopping safely—so that every child feels capable and in control.
🚴 Struggling with Bikeability at school? We ensure children develop the skills they need to participate confidently and enjoy the experience.
It’s never too late! Whether you’re 5 or 50, we support nervous riders of all ages to build confidence and enjoy the freedom of cycling.
Lessons take place at the Cycle Park, and we’re flexible! If the weather doesn’t cooperate or plans change, we’ll happily reschedule at a time that works for you.

Note that our 2-1 lessons are led by one trainer and are designed for two children of similar ages and cycling abilities who are able to follow the same course. If your children are at different stages on their cycling journey or are significantly different in age, please book separate 1-1 lessons.
Please please please review our Cycle Park Location Information so you don’t end up in the wrong place! Give yourself extra time to find the park for your first lesson.
