Beautiful weather is back, so it’s time to get on the bike! Do you want
to ride, or ride more, and ride smarter? We can help! The Gainesville Cycling
Club (GCC) announces a Bicycle Education Workshop on street cycling. The
workshop is open to all adults who are interested in street cycling. We will
conduct a classroom workshop with an emphasis on commuting in urban areas. The
workshop will employ various group dynamics that promote participation by all
in a safe space to discuss various topics related to effective street cycling.
We will highlight decision making in various situations, including establishing
lane position, negotiating intersections, and managing instances of conflicts
and accidents. The workshop is the first of a planned program of GCC bike
education activities. The first workshop is planned for Wednesday, 13 April 2016,
from 7:00 to 9:00 PM,
at The
Freewheel Project, located at 618 South Main Street in Gainesville
(www.thefreewheelproject.org). If you are interested, please contact
Stephen Perz, GCC Education Director, at

to confirm your participation. Have a great ride today!
