I have cycled all my life as has my wife.
We have a son aged 8 and we have tried to pass on as many of our skills as we can together with practical cycling on country lanes , cycle trails etc.
He is also a member of Hillingdon Slip Streamers and the quality of their coaching is awesome.
He has learnt how to ride as part of a group, how to overtake, ride an inch behind the real wheel of the rider in front and also how to ride through confined spaces with another rider whilst leaning against each other.
Not only that , but he has taken part in a time trial and is learning the art of road racing.
In my oppinion he is extremely lucky and the sooner you can get children into some type of cycluing club then hopefully this will translate into better cyclists on the road. -

A big thank you to everyone making it such an enjoyable ride.
It's the first time I have ever done anything like this and totally out of charachter for me.
Awesome to see so many bikes taking control of the road and a lot of confused onlookers.
A total departure from being a sensible middle aged father, I feel like I am 18 again !
it is extremely addictive !! -

Maybe it's just peoples attitude that needs a CBT.
I try and do everything to the best of my ability and take a certain amount of pride in my riding & driving.
It seems to me that a lot of road users are indifferent to others wherher they are cyclists or other vehicle users.
