Darren was amazing! His tips made it that starting to cycle on my own felt like a natural transition from the drills I was doing. To learn this as an adult in such a short time was mind-blowing. Sup... See more

After many failed attempts and with the years passing by we were very very lucky to find BikeHappy cycle training who enough completely converted our son into an intrepid cyclist from a standing start in three short lessons. Darren has developed a really simple but effective method that builds confidence and is also great fun. our 6 year old son was completely Bitten by the cycling bug after the first lesson and by the third could ride his bike from a standing start on a busy pavement ! I couldn’t recommend BikeHappy enough. Thank you Darren.
A 70 year old first timer
As a 70 year old who had never been on a bike I was a bit apprehensive at first.The trainer Darren quickly put me at ease and I was amazed at the speed of progress that I made.The only slight downside was that I was a bit fatigued at the end but I was extremely pleased with the end result. Thank you.

Absolutely thrilled we found bikehappy. Our daughter learned to ride a bike in just two days, a real boost in confidence and happiness for her. Highly recommend your friendly and effective teaching method! Thanks again
Confidence building one-to-one training…
Confidence building one-to-one training was perfect for getting me back on a bike. Duncan was immensely patient and supportive. I highly recommend.
Great experience, great results
Darren was brilliant, he really put our son at ease and made everything fun. He is a fantastic teacher who builds children's confidence and teaches them little tricks. The speed at which our son picked up cycling was amazing. I can't recommend Darren highly enough.

My experience was great
My experience was great. The skill of cycling was broken down in an easy digestible way. Darren was very patient and very encouraging. A thoroughly enjoyable morning!
Brilliant!!
The whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. Darren was patient, kind and positive!! My daughter liked him immensely and was able to take instruction from him, when she had found my help very annoying! Having someone out of the family dynamic made it a much calmer and happier experience! Thank you
Really good
I wouldn’t have believed I could cycle after a 2h30 class. Darren was just fantastic, I recommend 1000%.
Best Lesson! Book it now
Ive never been able to ride a bike and was anxious that I’d never been able to learn.
Darren is a superstar. He broke it down into small manageable steps. Nothing felt too hard or too scary and I was riding in 45minutes. Life changing! Thank you
Darren is a superb teacher
Darren is a superb teacher. I can hardly believe I’ve waited so long to learn - we had it cracked in no time
Better than I imagined
Better than I imagined . Darren was great .Simple and so effective . Our 5 year old arrived with stabilisers and left without them .
Best cycling session in London
Darren is absolutely wonderful, considerate and attentive teacher. He makes you feel comfortable and at ease. I felt much more confident in my skills. Great day and absolutely great experience which is important when you just start to build your confidence levels. Thank you!
Brilliant experience; fantastic teacher
Darren is a really lovely guy and a great coach. He was very conscious of the sort of anxieties that an adult learner might have; put me at ease immediately. I was really delighted with how the whole session went. Amazing value for money, I can't recommend highly enough.

I really enjoyed myself during my cycling session with Darren. The session was absolutely informative including every essential rule I need to know. It was such a great and valuable experience to overcome my fear as a novice cyclist by practicing cycling through many junctions on London’s congested roads. Darren was patient , supportive, and encouraging and I appreciated him for familiarizing me with the route from my place to uni. After a month, I’m now able to go to anywhere in this city with my bike, it was an amazing experience.
Amazing
Amazing! My son can ride after 3-days course. Strongly recommend this cycle course!
Darren is an absolute magician!
For a nervous person that riding a bike has eluded for decades, I genuinely didn’t think this was ever possible.
Darren was absolutely fantastic! His down to earth teaching method complimented my reserved disposition.
He shared so many golden nuggets in a practical way that I understood and was comfortable to hop back on and try again and again. With a huge smile on my face.
Simplicity in his delivery and positive encouragement was key.
I would give 12 out if 10 if I could and would highly recommend going with him if you’re someone that likes care, patience and attention in your approach to learning.
He had me riding in 60mins and it was just a dream after that :)))
Thank you for making my dream come true Darren x
