General Learn to Ride agenda

Each class will vary based on student progression, but this is the timeline for a two-hour small group class with Bike Fun.

20 minutes

Introductions & how a bicycle works

We’ll do a safety check of student bicycles, introduce ourselves, & talk about how a bicycle works.

30 minutes

Pedals off, let’s stride

Students will work on moving forward with their feet while sitting on the bicycle saddle.

10 minutes

Break time

“Official” break for snack, water, etc. Smaller breaks during the other segments are encouraged as the rider needs one.

30 minutes

Pick up those feet & glide!

Now that we’re comfortable moving forward sitting on the bicycle saddle, let’s put some speed into the mix & try to pick up our feet for a few seconds!

Final 30 minutes

Pedal power

For students who have been able to glide repeatedly, we’ll work with pedals (at their pace & based on their bicycle’s setup)

Extra 30 minutes

Free time practice after the class

As we break down the event, students are welcomed to keep practicing in the parking lot.
