Riding a bike just seems to be simple and straightforward. In fact, in order for cycling tours not to lead to disastrous results, you need to complete a whole course of training in a specialized school. Moreover, today they are opening in almost all cities of Russia.
To open your own cycling school, you need to take into account many different details and nuances. First of all, it is necessary to resolve the issue of the premises where the theoretical tasks will be conducted. After all, learning to ride a bike is unthinkable without knowing the basics - the rules of the road, the rules of behavior in pedestrian zones, the technical characteristics of the bike, the basics of vehicle repair, etc. So, for example, it is ideal if your cycling school will have a separate room where posters promoting traffic rules will be placed. It is also advisable to arrange a separate room for practical cycling. There should be one prototype on which it will be possible to learn how to correct technical faults, etc.
The second point that needs to be taken care of before the opening of the school is visual campaigning: posters, mannequins, practical manuals, etc. All this will help you to give students deeper and more useful knowledge.
Staff must also be selected very carefully. You will need road safety educators, craftsmen who can fix any bike damage, and an emergency medical instructor. If your school is supposed to teach extreme cycling tourism, accordingly, you will need a specialist in this area.
Your school should be equipped with bicycles that you can use to practice your practical riding skills. Moreover, it is desirable that the trial runs take place not in a crowded place. Therefore, if possible, organize yourself at least a small velodrome near the school.
Then it remains to calculate the price for training, take care of advertising and you can start. The ideal number of students in a class is 10. It will be easier for teachers to answer all the questions that arise, and it will be easier for students to assimilate the material. If there are more applicants, make a schedule so that the groups do not coincide in time.
