Thanks for your interest in the Alameda County Safe Routes to Schools' Bicycle Rodeo program, funded by the Alameda County Transportation Commission (
www.alamedactc.org).
Bike Rodeos are fun and hands-on training events that introduce elementary school students to skills and techniques for safe cycling on the road. A team of experienced bike safety educators instruct students how to fit a helmet and check whether a bike is safe to ride. Students then ride through a course that simulates city streets, to practice proper starting and stopping technique, learn hand signaling, and realize the importance of riding safely and predictably.
This activity is best suited for grades 3-5 during class time, school festivals, or community events.
