Good afternoon,

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to Harry for such tremendous coaching.
Our daughter was able to cycle on her own just 45 minutes into the session, such a big achievement!
We truly appreciate it.

Kindest regards

Absolutely worth every penny. We have a nervous daughter that was so scared.....took her 2 sessions to overcome a lot but she was cycling on her own by the end and she had fun doing it. She point blank refused to learn with us parents. 100% recommended. Harry is an absolute superstar and clearly enjoys it too.

What a great session. My 8 and 10 year old were given the time and patience to give them full confidence to cycle for the first time. Thank you so much
We had an excellent experience with Pedalwise for my son’s cycling lessons. Harry was absolutely fantastic.

He travelled all the way from Kent to Leighton Buzzard to teach my son, which truly shows his dedication and commitment. He arrived right on time, was very professional, and delivered the lessons extremely well. The indoor venue was safe, well organised, and perfect for building confidence.

Harry is such a kind, calm, and friendly person. His patience and thoughtful approach helped my son learn very quickly. He even took extra time to guide him outdoors once he was ready, which we really appreciated. That extra effort made a big difference.

Pedalwise is a trustworthy and reliable service, and the training was very well executed from start to finish.

I’m genuinely grateful to Harry for his hard work and dedication. I highly recommend him and Pedalwise to anyone looking for safe and effective cycling lessons.

Thank you so much, Harry!

Best £100 I ever spent!!!!! My son went from never being on a bike or scooter to being able to ride CONFIDENTLY in under 55 minutes! He didn't even need the full lesson. These guys are amazing. Even when he fell off (and I truly thought that would be the end of it) they got him back on with just a brief chat. Super encouraging with a system that clearly works. It was great to be able to watch it happen rather than be in the middle of it. Thanks for taking all the stress away from me.

Really great service. We were kept updated before the session on where it would be and what to expect. On the day itself, the instructor was kind and patient and our son was riding after 90 minutes. He’s now riding around with his friends confidently.

Why Kettering is a Great Place to Learn to Ride

Kettering offers an excellent combination of family parks, recreation grounds and quiet green spaces, making it one of Northamptonshire’s best locations for beginner cyclists. Riders can start in spacious open areas before progressing onto longer family rides as confidence develops.

Popular places to practise include:

  • Wicksteed Park
  • Boughton House Estate pathways
  • West Glebe Park
  • Rockingham Road Pleasure Park
  • Barton Seagrave Recreation Ground
  • Quiet residential roads around Barton Seagrave and Ise Lodge
  • Traffic-free shared-use pathways

West Glebe Park provides another relaxed environment for practising balance and control, while Barton Seagrave Recreation Ground is ideal for shorter family practice sessions close to home.
