First workshop this Sunday, 3/12
WOBO, with support from Bike East Bay, presents RiDE LiKE A GiRL, a 3-part bicycling skills workshop series designed for every woman who wants to ride.
March 12 – Workshop #1: Commuting Basics
Just enough chatting to get the fundamentals and rules of the road etched in our brains; and a 5-mile skill-building, confidence-boosting ride to test out some of the basic skills.
Itinerary
-
10am – 1pm @Uptown Bicycle Coffee (1745 San Pablo Ave, Oakland, CA 94612). Come by 9:30am and get a quick visual safety check by our fabulous League Certified Instructor, Kelly.
-
First hour of workshop will be a discussion and interactive Q&A.
-
At around 11, we’ll head outside, try out a few riding skills and visit bike storage options around transit and on the street.
Our Goal:
To get more women comfortable and confident on their bicycles, and feel connected with a community of women who want to bike!
Join in any or all of the workshops:
March 12 – Commuting Basics
June 11 – Finding the Best Bike for You
September 9-10 – Bike Camping
Each workshop includes instruction time and time on your bike. A donation of $15 for each workshop or $35 for all three is suggested (free for current WOBO and Bike East Bay members). Purchase tickets here.
