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.  See dates below.

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.

Bike helmets are required for this class (with exceptions for certain religious head wear). Don't have a bike helmet? No problem. You can buy a CPSC-approved bike helmet from me for just $20 cash or check on the first day of class. You can also buy one from any bike shop.
