INTRODUCTION
I am Judit Kovács, a multiple-time Hungarian Champion cyclist. I have a BSc in Sports Management and am currently in my final year at the Hungarian University of Sports Science, studying in the Faculty of Cycling Coaching. Alongside my studies, I work as a coach. I am committed to the education of the next generation of cyclists. I often experience the unique and thrilling process of watching parents anxiously observe their children’s first cycling training session. Each time, I am pleased to see that the level of worry and lack of trust diminishes in direct proportion to the young athletes’ daily improvement in cycling skills. After a year, parents almost naturally trust that their children can confidently manage the most difficult and complex cycling situations in both training and competitive environments, thus allowing them to cycle in everyday traffic without hesitation. I successfully explored this realization in my BSc thesis. Building on these experiences and research findings, my colleagues and I developed the BECYCLIST program, which includes the designs for the necessary technical elements and the program’s methodology. We partnered with BESTRONG, the leading functional sports equipment manufacturer in Hungary, to develop and produce these tools.
BESTRONG, the manufacturer of the BeCyclist elements, has over 20 years of experience in creating high-quality, TÜV-certified sports equipment, specialized design, manufacturing, and installation of sports parks, fields, and outdoor solutions. Certified products meet the highest standards, providing safe and durable solutions for active lifestyles.
