Danny MacAskill’s Climate Games
If you're looking for a video to both inspire your Cycle Sprog, make their jaw drop and educate them at the same time, look no further than Danny MacAskill's latest mind blowing film "The Climate Games".
Released in time for the COP26 conference it combines Danny's awesome bike handling skills with an important message about renewable energy.
Obviously everything Danny does comes with a huge warning "Do not try this at home". I for one certainly won't ever look at a wind turbine again in the same way!
However, I do think it could prompt young riders to set up their own climate games to highlight their own bike handling skills and concerns about the environment.
Do enjoy the film - plus the follow up that shows how they actually managed to get such incredible footage.

Keep the school run rolling this term
Term is well underway, routines are settling in, and that makes now a good moment to build cycling into everyday life, not just at the start of term but for the weeks ahead.
If you've been meaning to try cycling to school, there's still no pressure to do it every day: even once a week is a great way to build confidence and get everyone comfortable on their bikes.
The mornings are noticeably cooler now, and the evenings are drawing in too, so it's worth thinking about layers, lights and waterproof bits sooner rather than later. A little planning helps: finding routes that avoid the worst of the traffic, and building in a bit of extra time while everyone gets used to riding in the dimmer light.
Whether it's the ride to the school gates, a weekend trail or just a spin round the block, every journey this term is a chance to build confidence, stay active and make cycling part of family life. Half term is coming up too, a great excuse for a longer ride together.
Explore our guides for getting kitted out for cooler days, route planning and tips to help your family cycle to school with confidence this term.
