East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s Road Safety Team will be running two Bikeability courses during the school Easter holidays, in Beverley and Driffield.
Bikeability is a course run over two days, teaching practical road skills to keep young people safe as they approach the age where they will be making independent cycle journeys. The Road Safety team usually offer Bikeability level 1 and 2 training via ERYC primary schools from February to November each year; however we are aware that not every young person wants to access the course this way.
When?
Beverley on Monday 25th & Tuesday 26th March
Driffield on Wednesday 3rd & Thursday 4th April.
Who is it for?
Young people living in the East Riding of Yorkshire Council area, currently in school year 5 and above.
Cost?
£15 each (includes upto 2 days training, a high viz vest, set of bike lights, level 1 & level 2 badges, certificates, and booklets for each pupil).
Requirements?
Young people needs access to a roadworthy cycle (this includes two working brakes) and helmet. We have a limited number of bikes that could be borrowed if required for the course. Young people need to be able to ride a bike independently and hold a signal (left and right) for a period of time without wobbling.
