Charlotte didn't learn to ride as a child although now enjoys tandem holidays with her husband she can't ride a bike on her own.   This was a learn to ride 2nd session, she is no comfortable doing a sweeping bith path along the coast, at the end of the ride she also accomplished a tight left hand turn which she had struggled to do all the first lesson.  She is now learning to loosen her grip on the handle bar and is able to shift her hands around on the handlebar grips (this is with the aim of being able to ring the bell safely without losing balance).  We completed an exercise in a large empty car park of clockwise and anti-clockwise circles starting large and decresing the circle in size.  Also in this lesson for a short length we cycled on a cycle path adjacent to a main road so charlotte can be comfortable with the traffic noise.
