Cycling lessons for students
Cycling is a smart, sustainable and relatively cheap choice!
As a student, you are often on the move to get to all kinds of activities at school and in your social life. To do so, the bicycle is the ideal means of transport. It is a smart way to get around flexibly. Whenever and wherever you want. Yet, not every student knows how to cycle safely and confidently in traffic. De Fietsschool to the rescue!
Learning to ride a bike as a student
De Fietsschool gives cycling lessons to students who:
- come from abroad and did not learn to cycle as a kid
- grew up outside the city and feel insecure cycling in busy traffic
- want to get around more easily and safely by bike
You do not need cycling experience to participate. De Fietsschool adapts to your skills, experience level and pace.
What does a lesson series look like?
In 10 lessons, we teach students how to ride a bike. We first focus on basic skills and practice in a safe training environment without traffic. Then, we practice on cycling in traffic and help you understand the most important Belgian traffic rules for cyclists. Finally, we take our bikes onto the street, to learn how to smoothly and safely cycle in traffic.
"I always cycle to town now. And I had never cycled 6 months ago."
Our collaborations
De Fietsschool works closely with colleges, universities and student organisations. Together, we provide a low-threshold offer that takes into account students' schedules.
