Do it by Cycle DVD
The latest Cambridge Cycling Campaign newsletter has an article describing this DVD.
Although aimed at a school-age audience, it should be readily watchable by an older age group. The Blue Peter style presenters introduce each of the dozen sections ranging from 'Choosing a bike' through 'Helmets & Clothing' and right up to 'Advanced Cycling'.
What I appreciated most about on the DVD is the sequences of cyclists on the road in traffic. They've done a thorough job of covering the common situations that cyclists find themselves having to contend with day to day.
