2024 EASTER LEVEL 2 CYCLE TRAINING (SCHOOL YEARS 5+) (3 day course – must complete all days to pass)

Things to bring: a roadworthy bike, a helmet that fits correctly & free from cracks, water bottle and some snacks. Suitable clothing (loose items like skirts, baggy trousers and unzipped jackets are not suitable for cycling). 

Requirements: This course is for children in School Year 5 and above. Riders MUST have completed and passed Cycle Training Level 1 in order to participate in this course. If you have not yet completed Cycle Training Level 1, Jersey Sport will be offering this course over the holidays for you to book on to.   

The Cycle Training Level 2 course aims to develop riders’ skills and confidence for cycling on single-lane roads and simple junctions with mostly moderate motor traffic flows (where riders encounter vehicles with progressively greater frequency in each module), and prepares riders for cycling on more complex, often busier or faster roads and junctions. Riders must have fully demonstrated that they are confident with the  Cycle Training Level 1 assessment criteria before they start Cycle Training Level 2 training.  

At level 2 riders learn to: 

• Cycle safely, responsibly, identify and respond to hazards 

• Start and stop on-road journeys 
• Maintain suitable riding positions in the road 
• Share the road with others and communicate with other road users 
• Comply with signals, signs and road markings 
• Manage risk whilst cycling 
• Negotiate junctions (pass side roads, turn at T junctions and crossroads). 

We highly encourage you to bring your own bike if you have access to one. However, Jersey sport have a small fleet of bikes and helmets available for loan upon prior request on a first come first serve basis. Please email cycleteam@jerseysport.je with your child’s height (cm), inside leg length (cm) and the dates/course your child will be attending If you would like to arrange the loan of a bike / helmet for one of our courses.
