Free Cycling and Traffic Safety Programs
This spring, Bicycling for Louisville presents three free programs to help adult bicyclists ride more safely and comfortably. One even shows motorists how to drive safely around bicyclists! Click the links below for more information, including class times and locations:
- Confident Cycling: This ten-hour hands-on course, offered in two or four sessions, teaches you how to handle your bicycle safely in most any condition you will encounter on the roads. This class is great for bicyclists who want to build skills and confidence for riding in areas with motor vehicle traffic.
- Bicycling Safely New!: This two-hour presentation shows how to make sure your bicycle is safe, adjust your helmet, follow traffic laws, avoid crashes, choose the right place to ride on different types of streets and intersections, and more. This class is great for bicyclists who don’t have time for the full Confident Cycling class but want to strengthen their safety knowledge.
- Sharing the Road New!: Do you know the legal rights and responsibilities of bicyclists and motorists, or the driver and bicyclist mistakes that cause the most crashes? This 45-minute session will tell you, and help you avoid becoming a statistic. This presentation is great for any bicyclist or motorist.
