After School Cycling

Reading Borough Council runs After School Cycling sessions at Palmer Park. The sessions are aimed at children 3-16 years and are getting bums on bikes and wheels spinning.

The sessions allow children, as well as parents, to either sharpen their riding skills or build up their skills from entry level.  All levels of ability are welcome.  Children can borrow bikes, but are also welcome to bring their own.

Amelie and her mother take part in the sessions regularly. Amelie's mother says: “The sessions are brilliant because Amelie wasn’t prepared to use a bike without stabilisers, but now she has the confidence to ride without them. She’s cycle smart now and feels much more confident”.

After School Cycling sessions take place every Monday and Thursday at Palmer Park from 16:30 to 17:30.
