Helsingin Polkupyöräilijät ry (Helsinki Region Cyclists, Hepo) will arrange beginners’ cycling courses targeted for adults during summer 2026. Cycling brings joy, freedom and health benefits to one’s everyday life.

In order to participate, you do not need to have any previous experience or skills in cycling – we will teach you everything to get started! We will start from the very basics by learning how to balance on the bicycle. Step by step you will gain the skills to ride a bike with confidence.

You can join us even if you have practiced cycling before but feel like you still need more practice and confidence before you are comfortable cycling independently. With our more advanced participants, we practice cycling also on the streets.

Let us know your level and possible previous experience, so we can find you the best possible group.

The course is free of charge and to participate, you don’t need to bring your own bicycle.

As language of instruction we use Finnish and English, sometimes other languages are available too. There are no language skills requirements to participate this course.

Sign up by filling up the form below. There is a limited number of spots available in the courses, so you will receive a separate confirmation before the course starts.

The courses are made possible through a grant for health, wellbeing, and social inclusion provided by the City of Espoo.

Registration is now open. Sign up here! https://forms.gle/WQXFYokbZYzrxWw7A
