My children have done one term of Coasters Kids, and really enjoy the sessions that are teaching them about riding their bikes competitively. My daughter went on to win a silver medal in her first formal competition. I would recommend this group to any parents who want to share a love of cycling with their children. (Amanda Pennington)
