What is Go-Ride?
In 2017, Manilla Cycling became affiliated with British Cycling’s Go-Ride Programme. The programme offers learn to ride, coaching and group ride opportunities to young riders of all ages.
Go-Ride sessions are ran by Level 2 British Cycling Coaches who are all DBS checked and first aid trained.
Sessions are for children who are already able to ride a bike without stabilisers. The sessions will include techniques such as bike handling, braking, cornering, group riding, mounting & dismounting, gear selection, leading & following and fun competitive games & races.
Fun is at the heart of every session, with hiqh quality coaching and provide a clear pathway to progression.
