2024 October Level 3 Cycle Training – School Year 6+ – FULLY BOOKED!

Riders MUST have completed and passed Cycle Training Level 2 in order to participate in this course. If you have not yet completed Cycle Training Level 2, Jersey Sport will be offering this course over the holidays for you to book onto.   

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

The Cycle Training Level 3 course aims to develop riders’ skills and confidence so they can ride in diverse road environments, including complex, often busy roads and junctions, sometimes with speed limits above 30 mph. Successful demonstration of assessment criteria in Cycle Training Level 2 is a prerequisite for participation in Cycle Training Level 3.  

At Level 3 riders will learn to: 

• Plan a journey 

• Plan to and ride assertively everywhere cycling is permitted 

• Maintain suitable riding positions in the road 

• Cooperate with and respect other road users (including avoiding driver blind spots and riding with others) 

• Pass queuing traffic and use junctions controlled by traffic lights (if present) 

• Use cycle infrastructure and multi lane roads (if present) 

• Ride on roads with speeds above 30 mph (if present) 

We highly encourage you to bring your own bike if you have access to one.

Please contact 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.
