This includes:
• Checking your bike and your clothing.
• Making sure your helmet fits.
• Getting on and off the bike.
• Starting and stopping safely.
• Controlling your bike.
• Signalling and looking back.
Level 2 will take place on risk assessed roads near the Road Safety Centre in Maindy.
Trainees are expected to make judgements and decisions at junctions and roads with traffic whilst turning left and right.
All participants should bring their own bike and helmet. Wearing a cycle helmet is compulsory.
If you are having difficulties bringing a bike to the centre bikes & helmets can be provided free of charge.
