What you will be doing
We are looking for people to help make a welcoming environment at our cycling sessions.

Generally ensuring that people are happy, having a good time and getting what they want out of the sessions. You will be able to ask the cycle instructors to help people who need bikes adjusting or need help getting on to a bike.
