Teacher objectives Students are to have time and room to properly fit their bicycles. Putting on the helmet Make sure that your children's helmets fit correctly. Review your bicycle helmet owner's manual if you are unsure of a correct fit. Fit yourself for a helmet. Fit others for a helmet.
Students can time themselves putting on their helmet and mounting the bike.
This can also be a cooperative game in fitting others. A challenge could be partners racing for the best time with helmets properly fit. The handlebars are positioned that you can bend over at a 45 degree angle To size a bike correctly, stand over the frame between the seat and the handlebars. You should be able to raise the bike off the ground by two to five inches. Fit yourself by adjusting your own handlebar heights.
