BikeEd Hawaii is funded by the City & County of Honolulu Department of Transportation Services.
Our program is designed to be completed in five days and we can accommodate your school’s rotating schedule if necessary. The program runs from Monday to Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. (not including school holidays).
• Monday Classroom Presentation: The instructors will go over rules, expectations, visibility, why it’s important to wear a helmet, proper helmet fitting, the anatomy of a bicycle, and what the BikeEd week will be like everyday: SAFE & FUN
• Tuesday & Wednesday On-campus Workshop: 6-point safety check, how to ride a bicycle, bicycle handling and control drills, and proper stopping
• Thursday & Friday Off-Campus Workshop: BikeEd Instructors lead students who can ride safely on a neighborhood ride. Those still practicing can stay on campus to continue practicing. On the off campus ride, instructors cover safe driveway exits, left turns, right turns, and u-turns
