4-5 Bicycling Class

The MN Cycling Center bicycling class teaches the students individual and group bike riding skills. The class will include bike rides in the local area, leading up to a longer ride to a special destination. Before each ride,  we review the ABC (Air, Brakes & Chain) pre-ride bike check as well as ensure that the students' helmets fit properly. Early sessions will focus on drills and instruction of basic bike skills on campus and on short rides near the school. These drills ensure that the students can control their bike in a safe manner and can ride safely in a group. During each ride, we teach and reinforce the rules of the road including hand signals and how to ride on paths and roadways. We also explore the underlying scientific concepts that make bikes work, like air pressure, friction, leverage and more. During inclement weather, we expand the scientific learning activities with indoor bike-centric experiments.
