Jul 17 @ 10:00 am – 12:30 pm

We are pleased to announce our fiscal sponsor, Bike East Bay, will hold another Family Cycling Workshop in Albany on July 17, 2022!! The workshop will be held from 10:00am – 12:30pm at UC Village Community Center (Parking lot), 1125 Jackson St, Albany, CA 94706.

This event is brought to you via funding from the Alameda County Transportation Commission in partnership with the UC Village Recreation Program.

The family that rides together thrives together! Join Bike East Bay’s certified instructors for a day of fun games, safety drills, skills building, and a neighborhood ride.

This workshop is for kids who are able to ride a bike and ready to take to the paths and roadways with their parents (suggested grade range 2nd-6th). The event includes instruction on:

  • fitting a helmet
  • performing a bike safety check
  • communicating with other road users
  • riding in a straight line and avoiding obstacles
  • as well as navigating safely through intersections, all while playing fun games!

All minors must be accompanied by an adult to participate, both with their own working bikes and helmets. University Village has a limited number of bikes available for those residents who need to borrow one. Email uvrec@berkeley.edu or Dani@BikeEastBay to inquire. Each child will receive free reflective gear or a blinky light!

If the class is full, you can click here to be added to the wait list or be notified about future sessions as they are added.
