The British Cycling Level 2 Leadership Assessment consists of a practical assessment and a written assignment. It is recommended that you leave approx 6 weeks between training and assessment in order to fully understand your training.

Practical Assessment

The practical British Cycling Mountain Bike Leadership Level 2 Assessment consists of an all-day mountain bike journey. During the day each candidate will be assigned to lead a section of the assessment route of up to 10km working with a ratio of 1:4.

BC Level 2 Leadership Assessment Reviews

Rich was great at putting us all at ease and it did not really feel like an assessment at all, more like a day out with friends.

After my training course, I was inspired to get out there and practice all the things Craig suggested I work on before coming back for assessment. I am so pleased I passed and I am now looking forward to using the award at my centre.

Thanks for a brilliant day – the fact I passed was an added bonus. The location was stunning and I look forward to returning to the lakes to do some more riding.
