The Mar Vista / del Rey Bike Festival will teach kids essential bicycle and pedestrian safety rules to help them start to develop the confidence they need to safely navigate their urban environment, safely and responsibly.
Featuring several skills stations lead by certified instructors, our Bike Skills Festivals are designed to teach kids proper bike handling skills and valuable safety techniques, in a safe, fun and engaging environment. From helmet fitting and bike inspections to turn signals and avoiding hazards, children – and their parents – learn important lessons to more safely and responsibly ride their bikes, skateboards and scooters in an urban environment.
Several skills stations are set up for the children to progress through including:
• Helmet Checks
• Bike Checks
• Starting and Stopping techniques
• Avoiding Hazards
• Scanning, turning and signaling
• Yielding
Plus demos, bike tuneups, raffles and more! Certificates and goody bags for all participants!
