ONE of London’s e-scooter operators is partnering with cycling group Bikeworks, to offer free safety training sessions in Ealing.
The initiative by TIER aims to improve public and rider confidence while tackling misuse.
The sessions are available to all members of the public and will be led by qualified instructors.
People will learn how to safely use an e-scooter on roads and cycle lanes, as well finding out about an array of features, such as indicator lights, swappable batteries and access to the UK’s first ever e-scooter theory test.
Those who undergo training will receive free ride credit from TIER once completed.
The two-hour training sessions are being held up to twice a day on Saturdays and Sundays throughout August and September.
Users can sign up directly through the Bikeworks booking page.
