Who this task will support
Bexley Bike Club
Voluntary-led community BMX and cycling club at Bexley pump track. Running facilitated sessions for all abilities, in partnership with Access Sports.

Bexley Bike Club has partnered with Access Sport - a charity dedicated to making sport accessible for all children - to run free monthly BMX sessions at the pump track near Bexleyheath. This gives local families the chance to try out BXM cycling with experienced coaches in a fun and supportive environment.

We’re going to be helping the event run smoothly by:

  • Checking the track and clearing away leaves and litter.

  • Registering children as they arrive.

  • Handing out helmets, knee/elbow pads, gloves, and bikes.

  • Assisting coaches to set out cones and organise the children.

There’ll even be a chance for us to have a go on the bikes ourselves once the session gets underway!

It’s a great way to support the local community and a fantastic charity and enjoy a fun morning outdoors. Seeing the children's smiles is priceless.

📍Where and when

Meet at 10am at the pump track in Martens Grove Park - it's in the centre of the park at the bottom of the valley. The nearest park entrances are from Martens Avenue - opposite Grove Road or opposite Park Grove - using paths which have some steep sections.

The pump track is what3words location ///steer.invent.split.

Ask for the coaches - Sarah and Stuart - from Bexley Bike Club.

There may not be a GoodGym Bexley leader at this task, but the event organisers will make you feel very welcome. Look out for other GoodGymers and perhaps one of you can write short report and add photos of you at the task via the 'Mission Accomplished' email that will land in your inbox later in the day.
