Bicycle riding on the road is much the same as driving a car on the road.
Everyone who wants to be more confident and comfortable driving a bicycle on the streets will enjoy this class which is given in three sections.
You can take all three classes and earn the Traffic Skills 101 certificate from the League of American Bicyclists, or you can take any class independently. The course will be offered monthly, so if you can’t make one of the three classes, you can pick it up another month.
Class size is limited to 15 students so we ask people to register in advance.
