Can't remember the last time you were on a bike? Or never learned to ride? Come to a free learn-to-ride workshop and learn alongside other adults. 

This class is open to all genders, and is appropriate for people who have never ridden a bike before, have not been on a bike for a long time, or can pedal but need to work on basic skills (like stopping, turning, and changing gears). It is taught entirely in a parking lot. Bike and helmets provided for the duration of the workshop, registration required.
