A graduated, hands-on approach for children ages 4-10 years to learn and practice bicycle safety and bicycle handling skills. This clinic teaches basic safety and skills, designed to build confidence and enhance the joy of riding a bike. Following a review of helmet and bicycle fit, plus a basic review of safe bicycle readiness, children practice skills at a series of learning stations, each station building on the previously learned skill. Instruction is provided by League Cycling Instructors (LCIs), certified by the League of American Cyclists (LAB).

This fun and educational clinic includes:

• Proper helmet fit, bicycle fit, and bicycle readiness
• Safe starting and stopping - Weaving and avoiding hazards - Scanning and signaling - Yielding

All children must bring their bicycle and helmet to participate. Parents are encouraged to accompany their children throughout the course so that they can reinforce the lessons after the clinic is over. Typically the clinic takes approximately an hour to complete, however all students are welcome to participate for a longer duration.
