a family or wanting to cycle to improve health and fitness. Cycle training
could be for you!
Cycling is
Cost Effective
Riding a bicycle is an incredibly cheap form of
transport. No fuel, road tax, licence or parking fees to pay. Once you have
paid for your bicycle the mileage you cycle is virtually free, just the
occasional tyre or brake cable and an annual service. If you are good at DIY
then this becomes even cheaper.
Cycling is
Green
Cycling produces no polluting CO² emissions, needs
no fuel to power it, bicycles are incredible robust and almost all the parts of
a bicycle can be easily and cheaply replaced.
Cycling is for Children
You are never too old to cycle. Once learnt never
forgotten. Even if you never learnt
to ride a bicycle as a child, a one to one Cycle Training course will give you
the confidence and skills to ride a bicycle.
Cycling for
Health
People who cycle regularly stay younger and are
fitter than their non cycling counterparts. There is no need to make a special trip
to the gym and no expensive gym fees to pay. Cycling is recommended by doctors
to improve stamina and fitness. Cycling can help to reduce obesity in children
and adults.
Cycling for
the Elderly
Gentle cycle rides can help mobility and flexibility.
It can also be beneficial as part of a rehabilitation programme after ill
health.
Cycling is
User Friendly
Go where you want when you want to. No need to wait
for that all elusive bus to arrive, people to drive you, parking is easy and
free, cycle off road and enjoy the countryside, shop by bicycle and let the
bicycle carry your shopping not you!
Cycling
Myths
It is not necessary to own and ride an expensive bicycle.
The more desirable the cycle the more likely it will be stolen. Choice a
bicycle to suit your budget and keep it well maintained and it will give you
years of service.
You do not need to wear specialist cycle clothing.
Normal sensible clothes that will keep you warm in the cold and cool in the
summer are perfectly suitable to cycle in. Wearing light coloured clothes help
you to be seen in poor light.
