If you are a previous graduate, and you do not wish to attend the first few sessions, please contact the Chancellor or Dean to make special arrangements. Prospective students must have a geared bicycle and helmet in good condition, and be able to ride for at least half an hour. Students will be grouped according to their cycling ability and pace they are comfortable riding. Curriculum includes proper helmet adjustment, appropriate cycling clothing and accessories, advantages and disadvantages of various types of bikes, parts of the bike, gears, shifting, brakes, braking techniques, rules of the road, safety in traffic, group cycling etiquette, nutrition, hydration, hill climbing and descending, and how to fix a flat. During the course, rides will gradually increase in length and challenge from 8 or 15 miles the first day to 62 miles on our final day.
Class size is limited.
Students must be pre-registered.
