Getting there
For this session we're going to meet at the task, so you'll need to make your own way there. We encourage you to walk, run, or cycle to do so!
About this session
Bexley Bike Club has partnered with Access Sport - a charity dedicated to making sport accessible for all children - to run free monthly BMX sessions at the pump track near Bexleyheath. This gives local families the chance to try out BXM cycling with experienced coaches in a fun and supportive environment.
We’re going to be helping the event run smoothly by:
Checking the track and clearing away leaves and litter.
Registering children as they arrive.
Handing out helmets, knee/elbow pads, gloves, and bikes.
Assisting coaches to set out cones and organise the children.
There’ll even be a chance for us to have a go on the bikes ourselves once the session gets underway!
It’s a great way to support the local community and a fantastic charity and enjoy a fun morning outdoors. Seeing the children's smiles is priceless.
