Honestly, there are fewer better feelings…

This is Alex. Alex is a towering 6'2" 13 yo who's only ever ridden a tricycle before today. Due to his autism, he's never master a pedal bike, so he spent 30 minutes on our pink adult's balance bike. 35 minutes into his first lesson, Alex is riding his own blue pedal bike. 🩷🩷

Today's Bank Holiday cycling related fun included picking up a lovely 20" bike donated to our shop for recycling, driving out to repair a chain for stranded cyclist which had snapped mid ride, and taking my favourite 10 yo for her first 10 mile bike ride!

Watching an #Eclipse online is like watching Pornhub.
Just not the same. 😬😂

@EmilyKerr36 If it’s any interest, although Faringdon is missing from your list, Farcycles has produced it own mini map of safe bike routes around the Faringdon area which we sell in our charity bike shop. 🗺️ @mark4faringdon

@WeAreCyclingUK We'd love it if you'd add the 'Farcycles Bike Shop' in Faringdon to your Big Bike Revival map! Recycling bikes for our community, local charities and Ukrainian families is what we do!

Thanks to Harry from @ZyroFisher/ SRAM Technical UK for his support today. We had a real pain of a problem with a Code R disc brake. His patience and help were greatly appreciated.

There you are, replacing cables and trying to true the impossible on a bike from @Halfords_uk, and someone pops in with a “@canyon_bikes I just bought online that just isn’t working!”
Turns out is it’s a 13 spd 1x @campagnolosrl!
Some applied logic and @YouTube saved the day!

@KatFoxhall Every child we teach, we have the pleasure of that ‘goosebump’ moment we get as parents with those first few pedal strokes.

Sometimes it’s worth checking when the apprentice decides to fit a new chain when your back is turned. 😬

@KatFoxhall This little one shouted to her mum “I love this place and I love my teacher!”
We just wish every parent struggling with helping their child to ride knew about the Farcycles little helpers and the Cycle Park.

Today's 1-1 lesson at the Park was very special.
7-year-old 'H' cldn't ride and cldn't master a balance bike. At the sight of one, she ran. We removed the pedals from her bike and started simply walking while seated.
45 minutes later she was pedalling for the first time.
