Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

  2. Complete safety and serviceability checks immediately before riding and correct bike deficiencies, as required.
  3. Stow clothing, personal resources, and food according to access requirements during ride.
  4. Interpret planned route from activity plans and maps to assist in following the route.
  5. Confirm activity safety and emergency response procedures to ensure compliance during activities.
  6. Confirm protocols for communications between riders and with motorists.
  7. Fit and adjust personal protective equipment to ensure comfort and safety.

Ride bicycles on moderate road conditions.

  1. Mount and dismount bike safely, on different road gradients, while maintaining balance.
  2. Control speed of bike using techniques suitable for sealed surfaces and changing gradients, to smoothly pedal, change gears and brake.
  3. Establish and adjust riding rhythm and pace to minimise fatigue, strain and injury over changing gradients.
  4. Maintain appropriate posture, balance and weight shift to efficiently handle and control the bike in a straight line, through winding bends and around corners.
  5. Ride in bunch formation, where appropriate, and make required adjustments to own pace and place in formation, according to ability over changing gradients.
