Smart Cycling Session 2 – Downtown

The Smart Cycling Road Session II is for students who have completed the Classroom Session I. It includes

1. Parking lot drills where you will increase your bike handling skills and learn some emergency maneuvers to avoid motor vehicle collisions
2. Riding on a variety of local streets and bike paths while practicing proper lane positioning and performing safe and legal turning maneuvers.
3. About 12 miles of riding with frequent stops. Casual riding pace.
4. A written exam at the end of the class. Free light set and Certificate for all graduates.

There is no listed age limit for participating in this class designed for adults, but for youth under 16, we require that a parent or guardian also register and complete the class. We will be riding on roads and in areas without bike lanes, so children must be mature, strong riders and good listeners.

Note: We recommend you bring your lunch.  Limited 2 hour parking is available near the San Diego County Bicycle Coalition (SDCBC) office.  After 8pm the parking is free. A Parking Lot is available within a 5 minute walk of the SDCBC office and is located at the Tailgate Park at 13th St. and K St. The cost to park in Tailgate Park is $8 for 12 hours.

You will need to bring your helmet and bike or e-bike with pedals.
