I have recently embarked on the British Cycling, Level 2 coaching course, sponsored by the club. This involved an intense and very interesting 2 day course at the National Cycling Center in Manchester.
The next step on the course is to demonstrate 6 one hour practical sessions and this is where YOU come in!
The sessions would be ideal for children and newer, less experienced club members, having said that it was quite enlightening to have the basics skills experienced rides take for granted, broken down and explained.
Are there club members with kids who fancy being the next Geraint Thomas or Lizzie Armistead? Why not bring them along and join in yourself. There is no lower age limit but children have to already be able to ride their bikes.
Any newer members keen to learn how to use their gears properly, practice cornering skills and how to ride in a group? Come along and have fun while learning skills and techniques.
The sessions are planned for mid-August to mid-September and will be weekday evenings or Saturday/Sunday afternoons depending on who is interested.
They have to be held off-road i.e. in a car park or playing field and will be in the Bridgend area.
If you are interested please post here, PM me, email acharries@aol.com or phone 07504436270 for any additional information.
