Middle School Bike Skills

Middle School Bike Skills will help your child gain valuable skills and confidence to safely bicycle to school, the park, the mall, and beyond. The half-day class covers basic traffic laws, busy intersections, how to avoid the most common crashes, how to position yourself on the road, how to let drivers know your intentions using proper hand signals, and basic bike and helmet fitting. Classes are open to children entering 6th – 8th in the fall and are held on a Saturday or Sunday morning. The course begins with an in-person interactive review of biking basics, then moves to smaller groups for on-bike training & practice: bike/helmet checks, skills practice on a protected black-top area, then a bike ride around the neighborhood to put those newly learned skills to practice.

• Ages: All Children entering 6th – 9th grade. Level 4+ skill level.
• Cost: $165/student + accompanied adult
