Cycling skills workshops

For your workplace or group.

We come to you.

From practical skills for riding in traffic, to bike maintenance and bike commuting advice, these workshops are of real value to beginner cyclists as well as experienced riders.

These sessions are held right in your workplace
. We come to you to help increase the safety and enjoyment of your staff’s cycling trip to work.


"Thank you for your workshop. It was really informative. I gained a lot of motivation and incentive to ride more. Highly recommended."
— Marlee Linford, Administrative Assistant, Ministry of Finance

"Just wanted to drop you a note and say thanks for the workshop you did last week at Royal Roads. It was very informative and I’m looking forward to the next ones."
— Warren Ellam, BA, CEBS — HR Advisor, Royal Roads University

Our most popular format is the lunchtime session, which allows your employees to attend interesting, lively and very useful training over their lunch break. (This can be held at any time of the day or evening to suit your staff’s schedule, subject to instructor availability.)

All workshops are tailored to the skill and experience level of the participants.

Workshops available include the following:

  • 'Traffic Skills'
    Practical and readily-applied traffic skills for cyclists, teaching where to ride on the road, how and why. You’ll find out how to develop a confident, non-confrontational attitude in traffic.
  • 'Commuting Tips'
    From how to configure your bike, to what to wear, how to choose your route, and what to do with your hair and your clothes when you arrive—here are the answers to many questions asked by beginner as well as experienced cyclists.
  • 'Bike Maintenance'
    Learn how to keep your bike in top working order, no rocket science needed. Repairing flats, adjusting brakes and shifters, cable replacement, lubrication and more. This workshop helps take the mystery out of how your bike works.

See the menu above for more details, and contact us today to book your workshop!

Taught by an internationally certified cycling instructor, these sessions share with you a wealth of techniques taught in cycling courses throughout North America.

Workshops are affordably-priced and we offer a full promotional package to help ensure they are well attended and effective.

And this is the older sister of Murphy (below), who learned to ride shortly before he did. At the end of the morning, they were both riding together.The family had travelled from Regina to their campsite at a local lake north of Saskatoon, and then back to have the lessons for the day. Now the whole family can ride together to various places at the lake, and they've made plans to ride together to the grocery store and other venues.What you don't see is me walking alongside the new riders for a mile or so (or more) with my hand lightly resting on the handlebar stem, and patiently guiding them through every step.After a day of this I am exhausted (I still was when I was twenty years younger), yet I absolutely love these sessions.I don't believe I've done anything more rewarding than this in my life, and there have been several other deeply fulfilling careers. ...
