AN EVENT to help young cyclists get steady on two wheels is coming to the city.

Ditch the Stabilisers is run by My Journey Southampton and is suitable for ages three and up.

The session will focus on balancing and scooting skills, sometimes with the pedals removed, before moving onto pedalling.

Organisers say they encourage parents and guardians to get involved with the lesson and learn the process, so you and your child can continue to practice at home.

You are asked to bring your own bike, preferably with the stabilisers removed.

However, if you are struggling to get them off, there will be tools on hand.

The session is weather dependent. It takes place on October 26 from 10-12 at Riverside Park.
