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 will be running bike skills sessions for children at Bextival, the annual summer fair at Old Bexley Primary School in Bexley.

    The bike skills sessions are always very popular and the Bike Club have asked for our help to make sure they run smoothly and safely! We'll be registering children for their sessions, handing out crash helmets, knee-pads and elbow-pads, and supervising the warm-up area.

    You'll get free entry into the fair (normally £10 ) so you can enjoy the live music, arts and crafts stalls and even face painting if you fancy a glow-up, either before or after helping out. There will also be a BBQ, candy floss and ice cream to buy.

    This event has a great atmosphere and the children love the bike skills, so come along and be part of the buzz.

    📍When and Where

    Head to Old Bexley Church of England Primary School, Hurst Road, Bexley DA5 3JR What3Words:///again.dice.farm. Find the bike skills area and ask for Stuart or Lucy who are running the session. Tell them you are from GoodGym and they should be expecting you.

    We've listed the task for 2-3pm which is when GoodGymers Sarah and Johnny will be there. But you are welcome help out earlier, from 1-2pm or 3-4pm if you prefer. Please leave a message in the comments to say what time works for you.

    What to bring

    If the weather is warm please bring water and wear sunscreen and a hat as there won't be any shade at the bike skills area!

    What to look out for

    Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.

    This is a GoodGym community mission. When we're doing a community mission we make our own way to the task, so you can choose to walk, run, or cycle. Thinking of cycling - check out our FAQs

    This session is organised by your Taskforce, a group of experienced GoodGym members in your area. They are not responsible for your safety. You should feel confident to participate in the session as it is described and you do so at your own risk.
