Plan practice around the centre streets

Hertfordshire County Council lists cycle space on Bridge Road, Wigmores North and Fretherne Road, with crossing improvements over Osborn Way and around Howardsgate. These central streets are useful places to discuss awareness of people walking and cycling, checking for signs and choosing a safe position before turning.

Sherrardspark and Handside are nearby places to mention when arranging a pickup. If collection there would be convenient, provide the exact address so we can check instructor coverage.

We contact suitable instructors in our vetted network and confirm pickup coverage, manual or automatic tuition, available dates and times, and the lesson price directly. We negotiate the best available rate. You can review the instructor and terms before accepting; the offer is held for at least 24 hours.
