Online Workshop

Cycle Kingston offers a free online course on the basics of cycle commuting. This self-paced online course is for those who are new to or would like to start riding a bicycle as their preferred mode of transportation – to work, to school, for shopping, go out to eat, see a movie, or live performance or event, to name a few. Topics covered include: types of and equipment for commuter bicycles; checking your bike for roadworthiness; clothing and safety; how to carry what you need; riding in various weather and light conditions; basic route selection and planning, and more!

Although the online course provides foundations of cycling, we also encourage our in-person training sessions (e.g. Savvy Cycling Courses). In-person workshops allow for personalized instruction and real-world practice to help you gain confidence and proficiency in your cycling skills! In-person training allows you to:
  • Practice cycling skills drills in a safe location
  • Gain confidence through a supervised ride through the community
  • Address specific questions and concerns on the spot
  • Meet people and have fun!
​
Combining the comprehensive online course with the practical experience of in-person training ensures you are fully prepared to navigate the roads safely and efficiently. Join us for an in-person session and take your cycling journey to the next level!
