Intro to Urban Bicycling

Are you interested in getting around Dallas on a bike but aren’t sure where to start? Do you want to know how to safely and confidently find the best routes and ride with traffic? Get the knowledge you need to take to the streets!

Come to the North Oak Cliff library for a fast-paced presentation and discussion on urban bicycling. No bicycle or experience is required, and the class is free and open to the public. Learn:

• the rules of the road and the rights of people on bicycles
• situational awareness and reacting to common situations
• basic principles of bicycling in traffic
• how to find bike-friendly routes

After the class, there will be an optional short bicycle ride on neighborhood streets to demonstrate some of the principles discussed. All ride participants must sign a waiver and wear a helmet.
