Learn To Ride a Bike
We offer group Learn to Ride classes for children. Most people learn in one two-hour session, but if you or your child need more instruction after one session we can provide follow-up coaching.
We have all sizes of “balance bikes” (without pedals, cranks or chains) to get started, but students are encouraged to bring their own bikes if they have them, to make sure they fit and work properly. We can provide loaner bikes and helmets if you don’t bring one, or if you need one to practice with at home after class (with a $35 deposit).
Group lessons for kids:
Offered seasonally during warm weather months.
Each lesson is between 90 min and 2 hours (same as private lessons).
For students up to age 12.
An adult must stay with each child (or family/friend group of kids attending lesson together) for the duration of the lesson (typically 1.5-2 hours). Adults are an important part of the learning process as they help guide their kids through the instructions.
If cost is a hardship, please inquire about our Pay What You Can program at pwyc@ohiocitycycles.org.
