Mick Wong, BikeED Instructor Mick has worked with BikeEd since 2011, after moving from California to Hawaii in 1979. All three of his kids have participated in Bike Ed at Waialae Elementary PCS. My perception of Bike Ed was a wonderful way to educate our keiki on wearing a helmet and how to ride safely on the road. Best of all, I love to share in the joy of assisting "1st" time riders riding solo for the first time. Email: mick@hbl.org |
