About this Event

WABA has partnered with VEO to teach you the skills you need to ride safely and confidently on streets and in heavily trafficked areas on VEO's e-bikes.

The first half of the class will cover important bike handling skills and hazard avoidance maneuvers necessary while riding in traffic. Participants learn skills such as the avoidance weave and quick stop, and discuss considerations for sharing space with other road users.

The class ends with an on-street group ride, where participants put their newly acquired skills to the test. Have any questions? Email us at [email protected].
