About this Event
Looking to get comfortable riding in San Francisco? Join us for a presentation covering all you need to know for biking in SF and the Bay Area. This is the perfect class for anyone already riding to hone their skills, or people interested in riding but intimidated by urban traffic.
This comprehensive course follows the curriculum of the League of American Bicyclists and is the first in a series of classes. It will prepare you for our upcoming Smart City Cycling 2 and 3 on-bike courses.
Topics covered:
- Choosing a bike
- Rules of the road
- Biking in city traffic
- Handling intersections
- Avoiding collisions
No bicycle is necessary for this class.
COVID protocols: All participants are encouraged to wear a well-fitted face covering. We also encourage students and instructors to complete a self-health screening before arriving to the class (details will be sent in the confirmation email). We will have masks, hand sanitizer, alcohol spray, and wipes in the classroom for anyone to use.

This class is part of the SFMTA’s Bicycle Safety Education program, presented in partnership with the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition. It is made possible by the San Francisco County Transportation Authority through a grant of Proposition K Local Transportation Sales Tax Funds.
