Description

Whether you're a club cyclist, a racer who trains on the road, a bicycle commuter, a policy maker, or new to cycling, this class is for you!! This full-day class will provide each student with personal experience and perspective as a cyclist in traffic flow.  This course will build intuition on cyclists' issues such as: door zones, lane positioning, communication with motorists, complex intersections, parking, signage, bike lanes, and multi-use paths/trails.  Since all these issues affect cyclist safety and "bikeability" of our cities, this course is a "must".  The course will also cover more fundamental aspects of cycling, basic bicycle maintenance and basic handling skills - which are also an important component of cycling for transportation. The course will include classroom and shop instruction, as well as on-bike instruction on a closed course and on local streets.  The combination of these environments will build your confidence and intuition on the bike.
