A couple hours before this video was shot, this person had never ridden a bike before.  After a couple hours of instruction and practice, she can now balance on 2 wheels, pedal, steer, and brake.  You can do this too!

Level 1: Start Cycling! Learn to Ride a Bike!

If you’ve never ridden a bike, this class is for you. 

In Level 1: Start Cycling: Learn to Ride a Bike,
​you will learn how to:
  • Balance on two wheels
  • Do a Power Pedal Start
  • Pedal
  • Steer
  • Brake
  • Shift gears
  • Properly fit your bike and helmet
  • Do a safety check on your bike

In Level 1: Start Cycling: Learn to Ride a Bike, you will learn these skills in a small-group, supportive environment where you build your skills and confidence through on-bike practice and classroom instruction. You will develop your skills and knowledge with a lot of one-on-one attention from me, riding in a covered,empty parking lot without cars or traffic. You’ll be amazed with what you can do, as you experience the freedom of riding a bike.

Level 1: Start Cycling: Learn to Ride a Bike consists of three 3-hour sessions on consecutive Saturdays.  You must be able to attend all 3 sessions.  

Level 1: Start Cycling: Learn to Ride a Bike meets in Redmond at the City Hall campus.  We use the Public Safety Building as our classroom space, and the nearby parking garage for riding.
