The Town of Wake Forest will host a Smart Cycling class for beginners on Saturday, Oct. 26, and advanced riders on Saturday, Nov. 2. Both sessions will be offered from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the ground floor meeting room of town hall at 301 South Brooks Street.
Designed for ages 14 and older, Smart Cycle Classes emphasize safe riding techniques, the proper way to scan for automobiles, intersection safety tips, how to avoid road hazards, such as tree limbs, pot holes and rocks, and more.
Each class is $25 per person and $15 for each additional family member (limit four family members per class). Advance registration is required at http://wakeforestnc.recdesk.com/recdeskportal/<http://wakeforestnc.recdesk.com/recdeskportal/?fbclid=IwAR3EohdDGhAL_Oh6ZaKm1dL6RLrA1j2CeCsosntu0Jd6XH948Nt_YFpU9Hs>.
On the day of the class participants should bring their own bicycles and helmets.
Both sessions will begin with classroom instruction, continue with a variety of bicycle drills in the town hall visitor parking lot (located along Brooks Street), and conclude with a group ride that will allow participants to practice their cycling skills.
