Riding in traffic is smooth when you’re prepared with the knowledge and skills to avoid potential conflicts.  In the Urban Cycling Skills class, you learn where to ride safely on the street, how to be visible and predictable to motorists and where to position yourself at intersections.

Basic bicycle maintenance

Then, you practice bike handling skills and avoidance  maneuvers in a parking lot and defensive bicycle driving skills on the street. Back in class, learn quick fixes you can do yourself and how to fix a flat.

All classes are taught by instructors certified by the League of American Bicyclists.  Our instructors share their knowledge that will help you ride safely and their passion for bicycling will encourage you to ride more.

Class size is limited so you get personalized attention.  The $15 cost includes a class manual.  Click on classes above for more information.
