On your bike...indoors!

by British Triathlon

British Triathlon are looking for 3-4 volunteers to help deliver our indoor cycling sessions. We want these sessions to be for and run by people from the community, creating a friendly and encouraging atmosphere. We are looking to create a social ride session, taking people who may never have been on a bike and teaching them how to set up a spin bike and then lead them on a ride. Rides do not need to be hard, but an opportunity to get more active, increase the heart rate a little bit and have a chat with other riders. We are looking at running the first 12 weeks as women’s only so are particularly interested to hear from female volunteers. We will provide upskilling opportunities and some training before the sessions start to support you in the role. You do not need to commit to run every session but we are looking to build a social element so being able to support a block would be advantageous so you can build a relationship with the riders. Sessions are Tuesdays, 09:45-10:30.
