I attended this course on Saturday and thought it was fantastic and has already made a huge difference to the way I cycle. I’m sure it will reduce my chances of being injured, while allowing me to relax more and have fun when riding. The instructors were great, clearly had lots of experience with what they were talking about and taught everyone well while keeping the course fun and interesting. Having ridden bikes for years I was surprised that I had room to improve on the control skills and it was great to see where I needed to improve – am working on these areas now! Knowing the main causes of injury and then actually going through examples of how to avoid them in real life was excellent. Was great to get a better understanding of the road rules as they apply to cyclists, I’d read up a bit but wasn’t aware that Hook turns were allowed for example.
As someone who recently got back on a bike and was a bit nervous to ride in the city, after finishing this course I feel 100% more confident and safe to ride on city streets. The BikeWise instructors were fantastic - knowledgeable, friendly and provided actionable feedback throughout the day to help us ride more safely. I have been telling lots of friends about it and encouraging everyone to attend. I now know how to ride safely and respectfully on the road and just want to encourage you to please keep funding this initiative. I can’t speak highly enough about it! This should really be a prerequisite course for new food delivery riders also, it would not do any harm.
Our day was a success and the Bikewise team did an outstanding job. George and Carlos engaged with everyone at a very high level and did a great job of adjusting what was offered according to the interests of each family/group. We had loads of positive feedback from everyone who attended.
Just completed the course - really enjoyed it - the best training program I have done - please pass on my compliments to the Instructors who took our group - they were highly professional in all aspects of the training - extremely thorough - positive and above all safe. I felt really comfortable with these trainers as they took us through some tricky situations. Really excellent work and I will be making sure all my staff also do the training
I thought the Bike course was brilliant and the two instructors were fantastic – pleasant, respectful, knowledgeable, understanding, thoughtful and both ladies had great personalities. I really had a great time. I am now looking forward to riding a Council Fleet bike. Besides the info you provided below in your email, is there anything I need to do next? Looking forward to the Mystery Rides around our City
I thought the course was outstanding! The mix of theory, practical on and off road experience was fantastic. Having 2 trainers for the group worked really well and I felt that this was really important for our safety on the road. I have virtually no on-road cycling experience, and I now feel much more confident. Please pass on my thanks to the 2 trainers. Well done, city of Sydney, for offering this program. I will definitely be recommending it to others and I hope to do the maintenance course before too long.
Personally I think this course should be compulsory for anyone that wants to ride around traffic. I’m sure it would reduce accidents and also the frustration of driving around cyclists that do the wrong thing, possibly without realizing. I’ve started cycling to work as of this Monday so the timing was perfect.
I was most impressed with the course structure. The progressive material really aided our learning and confidence. The Instructors were really engaging and really cared about us! I have been to many training courses of a different nature over the years (mostly work) and have to say they can often disappoint. I thought the plan and delivery was outstanding. It was so clearly structured – e.g. setting the scene, asking questions, demonstrating the drill, our turn to practice etc.. It sounds simple but even the fact that the Instructors were really clear on their instructions & expectations and gave one instruction at a time! It made such a difference. It was very professional indeed.
I did a bicycle course yesterday at St Peters with Patrick Jones. It was really really good. The man is a legend. He’s funny, totally passionate about his subject, an excellent teacher, and gave me heaps of confidence to get on my bike. I have resisted cycling for 18 months since moving from flat Melbourne to scary Sydney, so this course was ideal. Anyway- let's clone Patrick and then plant him in every suburb. The world would be a better place.
