About this event
Mr Graham is an avid mountain, gravel, and touring cyclist. He is a cycling instructor with Grand Canyon Council Scouting America and City of Scottsdale McDowell Sonoran Preserve. Cycle training equips children with vital life skills. Pupils not only attain more confidence in cycling, they gain independence, social skills and a sense of wellbeing. After the course, children will be better at responding to risk and will have increased confidence. As a result, more children will cycle which in turn improves mental health and wellbeing. This allows children to get more out of the classroom, improving their attention span and engagement. Healthier habits lead to increased attendance and improved academic results. The classes go beyond a training course; it impacts children’s lives, and it's FUN with LOTS of bike games!
