Online Fall Bike Safety Classes

August 10, 2020

Join our virtual Bike Safety Workshop via Zoom on September 23 from 12:00 to 1:00 pm.

Biking is on the rise locally and around the world, with increasing numbers of people rediscovering cycling as exercise, recreation, and a great way to get from point A to B. 

TAPS is excited to team up with Ecology Action to support the UCSC community in riding safely and confidently, and to help those who are interested in picking up the habit. This workshop is a perfect entry for people starting to explore cycling during SIP, or as a refresher for cyclists who want to hone their riding skills during this time. 

The virtual workshop is interactive and will cover:

  • Pre-ride preparation
  • How to ride safely and confidently in most traffic scenarios
  • Route planning
  • Riding at night
  • eBike benefits
  • COVID-related cycling safety
  • 0% interest bike financing options

The workshop is presented by Ecology Action's League of American Bicyclist-certified cycling instructors and will include time for participant's questions.

And to make sure you're riding safe, all workshop participants will be entered into a giveaway for a bicycle care package, including a portable pump, multi-tool, and patch kit.
