If you find riding a traditional bike challenging, the Accessible Cycling programme can open up the joy of cycling to you.
Moors Valley Country Park, Golf and Activity Centre and Redlands Leisure and Community Park are both part of the Wheels for All national scheme.
We have a fleet of adaptive bikes to suit a range of needs, from a lack of cycling confidence to physical or mental impairment. These include side-by-sides, recumbent trikes, a wheelchair bike, tag-a-longs, tandems, tricycles and handcycles.
All new participants must have a 1-2-1 consultation to get started. This can be carried out with individuals or as a group.
Complete our online registration form to get started.
Consultations are carried out on a Wednesday and cost £5 per person.
During your pre-booked 1-2-1 consultation, you will get to try out some bikes and discuss which would best suit your needs.
Full details on availability and advance booking procedures will be fully explained during your initial consultation.
Please make sure you have completed a Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PARQ) before participating in this activity.
