Whether you're 18 or 80, it's never too late to learn to ride! As one recent participant wrote about our Learn to Ride for Adults class, "Extremely helpful techniques plus the positive attitude and supportive energy from the marshals made it a great experience."

Learn to Ride for Adults is a free, 2-hour class for adults and mature teens who are ready to ride! Through a safe, easy, effective method, Learn to Ride students learn how to balance, pedal, start, stop, and steer a bike, as well as adjust a helmet for proper fit. Most people learn to ride their bikes while taking the class, but even if they don’t, they leave with an easy, crash-free, and low-stress way to teach themselves to ride.
