BikeAbility Wales
Learn to ride
Two wheels are better than four!
We can teach children and adults of any age or ability to ride a bike. Every year we teach around 150 new riders and give them the freedom that riding a bike can bring.
With 15 years experience, our patient, friendly instructors can get most people riding within an hour.
Booking is essential and costs £15 for half an hour (for anyone under 6) / £25 per hour (for anyone 6yrs+).
How to book
Please call us to arrange a convenient time on 07968109145 or 07584044284. A deposit of £15 will be taken when booking. If you need to cancel or rearrange 24 hours notice must be given otherwise the deposit will be lost.
We can provide bikes and helmets so you don’t need to bring anything.
Top tips!
Please wear comfy clothing suitable for riding: avoid clothes that might get caught up in parts of the bike (such as baggy trousers or long coats/dresses). Flat shoes or trainers are a good idea.

What can I say.... so happy with the results. I’d read the reviews but didn’t think that in less than an hour they... would get my son riding. Their patience and expertise has given my son the confidence to do it. We have been trying but with no avail as he was very reluctant to listen to his parents. Yet he listened carefully to Sandra at BikeAbility and is very proud of himself. We will definitely return for him to learn new skills. Thank you.read more

Fantastic! Very reasonable bike hire, friendly staff, great advice, plenty of safe car parking and straight onto the... Clyne Valley cycle track. Great for novices and families but plenty of experienced cyclists about too. Highly recommended and we will return. Clean toilets and a handy cafe here too.
PS: We had a puncture on one bike happen about 2 miles from the centre. The staff were brilliant, even down to taking a replacement bike to my wife for her to use. Excellent service!read more
