Bike Happy Cycle Training Reviews 

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

I’d been struggling to get my 6 year old son to ride a bike for a few years, he just wasn’t interested and didn’t enjoy it. Literally one and a half lessons with Darren and he was riding his bike, and enjoying it! Darren is the most patient and kind man and just has the most positive and engaging teaching method to help your child learn how to ride. We’re certainly going to continue with the lessons and will be coming to see him with our youngest as soon as he’s ready.

My cycle lesson with Darren was better than I could have expected. I was very nervous and a bit embarrassed to be having a lesson as an adult! But Darren put me at ease immediately and I actually had really good fun whilst learning to cycle again after about 20 years. I’m now able to cycle with my children which they and I love! Thank you Darren!

Booked the adult learn to ride lesson, Darren is absolutely lovely and immediately put me at ease. He’s obviously an experienced teacher and was very clear with all his instructions and patient throughout. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

If you’ve been putting off learning to ride a bike then this lesson is perfect for you.

Darren is very friendly and supportive. I never imagined myself riding a Santander bike, but at the end of the session I did 🚴‍♀️!

Highly recommended.
Thank you Darren

Darren is a brilliant teacher! The first person who managed to teach me to cycle after many, many, failed attempts. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I had read all the wonderful reviews of Darren before I did the class and still didn’t believe I would ever be able to get on a bike but I was completely wrong. Darren achieved the impossible - he was so kind, enthusiastic and patient and I made more progress in a couple of hours than I ever thought I would. I highly recommend his service to anyone who is determined to learn to ride a bike.

Darren is Amazing!! I wished I have found his services years ago. He is kind & patient. My 13 year old son felt comfortable with him straight away and grasped the techniques taught. I would recommend Bike Happy 11 times out of 10. I am one happy & grateful Mum 😊

My husband booked a lesson with Darren as a birthday present and I was very apprehensive and nervous about it. But Darren immediately put me at ease with his kind, gentle approach and for the first time in 51 years, I was riding a bike! I would definitely recommend Darren to anyone wanting to learn to ride a bike, he is fantastic!

Our son had struggled to pick up riding a bike but in just 2 lessons he is happy and confident and loving cycling. Darren was a fantastic teacher and so encouraging. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Darren is a wonderful instructor with all the attributes you'd want in a person teaching you such a daunting new skill. He was patient, thorough, attentive and moved exactly at my pace. I even transitioned to a Santander bike at the end of my 'Learn to Ride' lesson, so I left confident enough to practice my skills in my own time.

Great teacher very patient. Would recommend to everyone.

Very pleased with bike happy. It is not easy finding someone to teach an adult to ride a bike. Darren was a very pleasant and patient teacher and his step by step approach inspires confidence and achieves results. He really can get you from zero to cyclist in just a couple of hours.

Darren was the sweetest and had the best energy

Great experience, really fun and an excellent way to learn.

I'm 56 and have never been on a bike before, needless to say I was petrified and very nervous before my lesson. I needn't have worried. Darren is a fabulous instructor and put me at ease with his calm and patient nature. He walked me through every stage very patiently. We had a good laugh and can you believe it, within 45 minutes I was peddling away in Hyde Park on my own! It was nothing short of amazing.
If you are nervous and never learnt to ride a bike then DARREN IS YOUR MAN!
I feel I can conquer the world and I wonder what took me so long.
Thank you so much Darren. I'm going cycling with my husband and daughters soon. They are also over the moon!

Darren was really friendly and my daughter had a great time! Strongly recommended!

Darren was amazing!! He broke everything down into easy to follow steps. He had me cycling in no time. He was super encouraging, really patient and we laughed all through. It was a fantastic experience. He captured many videos and after the lesson sent them to me with a recap of the key principles so I would not forget. Excellent customer service from booking all through to the end. If you want to learn how to ride a bike, Darren is your man!

I came to the class slightly worried that I will embarrass myself but Darren was very friendly, patient and methodical and made me feel very comfortable. He provided all the know how to help with understanding the mechanics and gave encouragement. Within 30 min I was able to pedal 😄 absolutely great experience!

I really can’t recommend Bike Happy highly enough. Darren is so kind and patient and had my daughter cycling in no time. And importantly she had lots of fun. I just wish I had signed up sooner!
