About this Event
The purpose of ongoing bicycle education is to teach children basic bicycle handling skills, traffic signs and signals, how to ride on streets with traffic present, proper helmet use, bicycle safety checks, and bicycle maintenance.
Young children are just learning about traffic. They have little experience with which to anticipate and interpret potential traffic hazards, and limited abilities to reason and react. Their brains are still developing, and they lack the maturity and judgment needed to negotiate traffic safely and to limit risk-taking behaviors.
Bicycling education can increase participation in bicycling, improve individual bicycling confidence, and improve overall motor skills. Education will also emphasize the importance of protective safety equipment and good bicycle maintenance practices. Bicycle safety training and education is incorporated into life-long, comprehensive traffic safety education.
This event will be led by partners from Propel ATL, Safe Routes to School and the YMCA.
Please be aware that bees are present at 684 Mountain Way Park, and you will need to fill out our liability waiver prior to attending the event. There are no public restrooms available.
