What Does Your Commute Look Like?

Are you tired of sitting in traffic? Do you want to make the most of our beautiful island? Join us for Commuter Cycling 101 and learn how to travel by bike! Cycling is not only a great way to stay in shape, but great for the environment. Let us show you how to commute to work, school, and even the beach.

This 2-hour bicycling course begins with coverage of safe cycling practices in a classroom setting. Topics that will be covered include: your rights as a cyclist, rules of the road, equipment safety checks, lane positioning and more. The class then moves to a large parking area to practice riding drills and finishes with a group ride through the nearby community, combining classroom knowledge and road skills.

Ride with our instructors to develop the confidence to do it yourself. Classes are taught by League Cycling Instructors certified by the League of American Bicyclists. Funding provided by the Hawaii Department of Transportation, and classes are sponsored by the following local bike shops: BIKEFACTORY, The Bike Shop, Eki Cyclery, IT&B, and McCully Bicycle and Sporting Goods.

Stay tuned on this page and follow us on Facebook for the newest class times and locations. Thanks to our sponsors, we have lots of goodies to give away to participants, including gift certificates, water bottles, and patch kits. Everyone receives something!
