Our cycling confidence course has been developed for beginners to learn how to ride their bike safely and efficiently and therefore have more fun while out riding.
We recommend that you do the initial course then go away and work on the skills and drills that we cover before coming back to have the tutor reassess your progress and give you new things for you to go away and practice. We believe that on completing three sessions with us over a couple of months you will be confident to be able to tackle whatever the road puts in front of you.

Comments on the course
“Thank you to Complete Performance for the cycle workshop Richard and his team put on for our group of Marlborough riders. It was simply amazing to see the improvements the riders made in what was sometimes literally minutes of putting instructions into practice. All the riders appreciated the friendly and fun way the sessions were delivered. For me as an event organiser it is was pleasing to see the skills being elevated to a level where I know these riders will be more proficient on the road making the events they ride in safer environments for both themselves and the riders around them.” Pete Halligan (Graperide) .
“I thought it was great how Richard was sensitive, supportive and patient throughout. Thank you” Karen Kelly.
“Yes I did enjoy Saturday mornings session and I went for a ride on Sunday and used both cornering and pedal technique. On corners just keeping the inside foot up felt so much more steady and I was able to push down more on the outside leg and lean more because of this. With the pedal stroke I think I am already starting to use my glutes which I haven’t been able to ignite. So I would say that I got quite alot out of that session thankyou.” Eleanor Wooff .
