Bike East Bay instructors will provide a day of fun games, safety drills, skills building and a neighborhood ride. For kids and parents!
This workshop is for kids who are able to ride a bike and are 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.
If the class is full, you can be added to the wait list or be notified about future sessions as they are added.
Please note: Our family events are for parents and kids to participate in together. If you are interested in an in-school or youth-only bike rodeo we recommend following up with our friends at Cycles of Change instead, by emailing DriveYourBike@CyclesOfChange.org.
*THIS WORKSHOP IS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE EL CERRITO “GO GREEN! MOBILITY FAIR“
EVENT IS FREE BUT YOU MUST PRE-REGISTER HERE TO RESERVE A SPOT!
Help celebrate the many years of planning that went into the Gilman Interchange Project at the Ribbon Cutting! This event will celebrate the collaboration between the City of Albany, City of Berkeley, Alameda County Transportation Commission, and Caltrans. AS&R helped expand the scope of the project to include the construction of a low-stress, all ages and abilities connection from the Codornices Creek Trail to the new active transportation bridge. This created the lowest stress connection between the Ohlone Greenway and the Bay Trail anywhere along their length. We’ll ride along this new route, stopping at times to admire the details. Ride starts in Albany at 10:30 am. Ribbon Cutting is at the west side of the interchange at 11 am. Register for the Ribbon Cutting here.
This will be an all ages and abilities group ride with support from the AS&R Core Group. Kids welcome, but bikes with training wheels are not recommended.
Yes, it’s a Monday, but take a couple hours off and celebrate as we lead into May: Bike Month!
