Thanks so much - (I think I showed my age there!)

I used to be a cycling examiner instructor and examiner! The bikeability scheme includes more road based- supervised activity depending on your level. Pretty important in London.

Thats exactly what I feel is required for my girls.

Does Southwark operate a scheme? I know Lambeth does.

I couldnt find a Southwark one - just Lambeth.

Yes there is a Southwark scheme run by www.cyclinginstructor.com. They offer free bike lessons for adults and kids (either through schools or in school holidays). Infact they were promoting some courses over easter on EDF that ran in Dulwich Park.
