SMART CITY CYCLING 2: MANEUVERING

Sunday, November 9 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

This on-bike class will focus on the bike-handling skills you need to safely and confidently ride in city traffic. The class will be conducted in a car-free space and is the second in the Smart City Cycling sequence. Smart City Cycling 1: Classroom is a prerequisite for this course. If you have not already taken it, you can register here.

Topics covered include:

  • How to ride with one hand in order to signal
  • Scanning over one’s shoulder while maintaining a straight line
  • Crash-avoidance maneuvers

This class will prepare you for Smart City Cycling 3: Road Practice, in which you will take your new skills onto the streets.

All participants MUST either bring a bike or contact us in advance regarding a loaner bike. Bikes will not be available at the class. We have a limited fleet of loaner bikes that are available on a first-come first-served basis. Please email Qamuuqin Maxwell (qmaxwell@sfbike.org) if you need a loaner bike for this class!
