Cycling With Autism


Illustration by Jimmy Rogers.

We believe people of all abilities and differing needs should feel confident riding a bike. It is possible for autistic people to learn to cycle, but they will need more help to do so. It may take them a lot longer to learn to ride than a neurotypical person.

We’ve created some resources to help teach those with autism, dyspraxia and hyper-mobility how to cycle at home. Download them below:

  1. How does Autism affect learning to ride a bike?
  2. Balance, coordination & movement
  3. General advice for teaching children
  4. Getting ready to pedal
