Select your class below. Only one person per sign-up please. For example, if you and your husband both want to sign up, complete a separate registration for each person. That way, I know if you need to borrow a bike, etc.
Biking 201: Bike Handling Brush Up meets at the Redmond at the City Hall campus. We use the parking garage and parking lots for riding.
Don't have a bike? No problem. Just let me know you need one on the registration form. I'll ask you how tall you are, so I can provide you a bike that fits you.
Bike helmets are required for this class (with exceptions for certain religious head wear and hairstyles that make helmets unfeasible). Don't have a bike helmet? No problem. Helmets are provided at no charge. Just let me know if you need one.
