Note: The on-bike course is focused on adults (14 years of age and older) who know how to cycle and offers a review of safe cycling principles, tips, hazards, equipment checks, and group riding skills with a focus on eight handling skills. This is all done in a car-free environment parking lot and may conclude with a short ride to a lunch stop if the group is interested. The in-class course also covers the topics listed in the on-bike course, but highlights bicycle positioning in different traffic situations. For both courses, families are welcome but youths must be accompanied by an adult.
