Gaining Momentum

Move More Gaining Momentum is FREE and designed to support anyone to increase their distance and confidence on different terrains when cycling.

Move More Gaining Momentum is a four-week cycling programme for adults over 16 years old. The programme is designed to take you from 16km – 28km, which will add saddle time to your cycle rides, whilst improving your confidence on different routes and terrain, including various opportunities to learn key road riding skills. Routes will include mixed terrain (including flat, incline and descents), traffic free and quiet lanes going to suburban routes, roads and shared user paths with some main roads to link lanes.

Move More Gaining Momentum sessions are FREE!

WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING?

You will be required to bring a roadworthy bike, a helmet that fits you correctly and one that is free from cracks, and your own water bottle.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Please bring weather appropriate clothing to the session. We encourage gloves/warm jackets that can be zipped up for cold weather and waterproof clothing in case it rains. For sunny days please bring sun protection e.g., sunscreen and light layers as well as plenty of water.

We highly suggest you don’t wear loose items such as a skirt, baggy trousers, and unzipped jackets as these are not suitable for cycling.

IS THE PROGRAMME WEATHER DEPENDENT?

Please note due to the nature of these sessions they will be weather dependent. Should the wind/rain be dangerously strong on the day causing a hazard, coaches will decide whether the session is safe to go ahead. If the coaches judge the weather to be unsafe to ride in, you will be informed a minimum of 2 hours before the session start time.

CAN I BORROW A BIKE OR HELMET?

We highly encourage you to bring your own bike if you have access to one. However, if you don’t have a bike, Jersey Sport has a small fleet of bikes available for loan upon prior request, on a first come, first served basis.

If you would like to borrow a bike or helmet in order to participate in our Learn to Ride programme, please contact our Jersey Sport Cycling team by emailing: CycleTeam@Jerseysport.je and include information such as your height, inside leg length and the dates/course you will be attending.
