About this Event

Smart Cycling Part 2 (On Bike) is a outdoor workshop. You will practice all the techniques and situations that you learned in Smart Cycling Part 1 while working in small groups. Certified League Cycling Instructors (LCIs) will help you improve your bicycle handling skills, ride defensively to avoid crashes, and learn crash-avoidance maneuvers in case of emergencies. This class prepares you to bike confidently on any street.

This class is open to anyone age 14 and older. Attendees must bring a well maintained functional bicycle they can ride and a helmet.

We recommend bringing plenty of water and sunscreen. We will stop mid-day during the instructional ride to pick up and eat lunch.
