Capital Bike offers courses through local rec centres. See below for our 2023 offerings.

Beginner Adults

Those looking for one-on-one lessons tailored to their individual level of skill and fitness, especially those learning how to ride a bike for the first time, are encouraged to contact our community partner Susanna Grimes and her program, Joyriding.

Adult Course (4.5 Hours)

Part I – Theory: A thorough overview of traffic rules, cyclist rights and responsibilities, bike and helmet fit, bike infrastructure, route planning, and more during an in-class portion of the course.

Part II – Practical: The on-bike portion of the course begins with a parking lot skills development session. This is where participants develop bike handling and emergency maneuvering skills in a controlled environment.  Next, participants embark on a group road ride, putting theory to pavement in a fun and practical manner.  Trained instructors maintain a safe environment and make frequent informative stops to provide tips, tricks, and feedback as the group navigates through low-risk traffic situations.
