Bike Safety Workshops


The Safe Bicycling workshop introduces participants to the concept of Vehicular Cycling, which includes the bicyclist as a viable part of traffic on the roadways.

The workshop will include a classroom presentation including such topics as Bicycle Selection and Fit, Bicycle Pre-Ride Inspection, Bicycle Traffic Law, Roadway Positioning, Emergency Maneuvers, and a review of the League of Illinois Bicyclists' "Share the Road" video.

A short on-bike ride will follow, demonstrating the use of techniques learned during the workshop. Workshop participants are encouraged to bring their bicycles to the workshop, but the on-bike ride is not required. If riding, a bicycle helmet is strongly encouraged, but not required.


The following classes are scheduled for the fall semester:

September 7, two sessions
September 16, 17, and 18, one session (4:30 pm)
September 20 and 21, two sessions

October 9 and 10, one session
