Experiences of Cycle Training

Getting to secondary school is in theory why training is funded at year 6. What I wonder is at what age parents feel they'd allow kids to ride to school. (My 'kid' is 29 years old and I am reluctant to allow him to drive, he of course ignores me:)

I have noted recently that in Hackney near me there are many more young people cycling to school since they turned the local roads into access only (Modal filtered) so traffic density is low and slow.

My dream is for filtered permeability in every other street in Southwark, if not the whole of London.

This strongly supports arguments for implementing and enforcing 20 mph speed restrictions in areas with child pedestrians such as residential streets.

I won't tell you my age but my mother says she worries about me cycling, every day - always has, always will.

In terms of children, there's quite a lot of research which shows that children are less able to perceive speed than adults. All the more reason for implementing and enforcing 20 mph speed restrictions.
