Cycle with Confidence

The best place to start is with these videos from British Cycling, which show you how to position yourself on the roads, use roundabouts, filter in traffic, check your bike and more.

Cycling skills and bike maintenance classes are put on regularly. Please get in touch to register your interest.

Riding your commute alongside an experienced cyclist is great for your rush-hour confidence.

If you there no other rider on your route, please email the sustainable travel officer, who is available to accompany first-time cycle commuters.
