Bikeability Levels

There are three different levels of Bikeability

  • Level 1 - is a fun bike-handling session in an off-road environment and is ideally suited to children aged 6-9 years old.
  • Level 2 - This is training on quiet roads with real traffic conditions and is available to children aged 9 and older.
  • Level 3 - Is carried out on busier roads with more complex road junctions and is suited to secondary aged children and adults.

Level 1 is delivered to several primary schools in Torbay.

Level 2 is offered to all primary schools in Torbay for pupils in year 5 or 6. We want to give as many young people as possible the opportunity to gain this important life skill.

Level 3 training is delivered to secondary school students in Torbay by Torbay Sports Partnership. This gives them the opportunity to plan and cycle more complicated routes.

We also provide children’s Learn to Ride’ sessions in some school holidays.
