Almost two thirds of schools (60.3%) across Scotland ran Bikeability on-road cycle training last academic year (22/23) – a record for in school cycle training – and 20% increase from last year. To understand actual impact we spoke to children who had recently completed training and asked them for their perspective both on the training itself and on cycling in general.

From borrowed bikes to stabilisers, from a parents hand on your back to tumbling onto grass, there is no one version of this life skill.

Sometimes we bike to the shops and sometimes we just go on it to look for stuff and adventure.
It's better to cycle because it feels good to do it. Plus it's way better for the environment and you get tonnes of benefits too.
It definitely boosts my confidence, being able to be trusted to go by myself and with my friends.
