WHAT’S A CLASS?

A class is a bike education session (1-3 hours) designed to teach you a particular skill or set of skills that will help you cycle with confidence. Depending on what you’ll be learning, your class sessions will be held either on a bike at one of our Community Bike Education Centers or in a classroom setting.
