    • Summer Cycling Activities For Young People – Tower Hamlets

    Free activities for young people aged 11-15

    We love seeing young people on bikes.

    Our sessions in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, designed specifically for young people between the ages of 11 and 15, aim to develop your skills to cycle off and on road.

    A mix of Bikeability-based cycle training, games and other activities, these sessions aim to build confidence on a bike whilst having fun! 

    From beginners to improvers, our instructor will help you to build your confidence and skills.

    If you are aged between 11 and 15, live or study in Tower Hamlets and want to have fun on a bike whilst improving your cycle skills, these sessions are for you!

    We have space for up to 10 people to take part in each session.

    The morning session, taking place between 10:00 – 12:00, is for beginners or those who have just started to learn to cycle and want to improve.

    The afternoon session, taking place between 12:30 – 14:30, is for those who already have some experience with cycling and want to continue building their confidence.
