The school holidays are by far the perfect time to sign your children up to a bike safety course. No one wants to be that overprotective parent who doesn’t let their kids cycle to school with their friends or over to the park even when all the other kids are allowed to because they’re worried about that tricky intersection up the road. Of course everyone fears for their kid when they’re out and about but a short cycling proficiency course will provide them with the skills they need to keep them as safe as possible.

Many schools offer Bikeability or Bike It! courses during the holidays which your child can sign up for. If your school doesn’t, ask them to run one this October half term or search to see if there are any other ones taking place in your local area.
