Learning to Ride

Two of Reading's Parks offer good networks of paths on which children can learn to ride with confidence:

Palmer Park

Palmer Park - East Reading's largest park provides a safe environment for children to learn to ride or for children who have already learned to love their bikes. The park's cycle paths form a one mile circuit around the Stadium with only the gentlest of hills to negotiate. The Stadium, with its cycle track, is home to Reading's cycle sport community.
