Los Angeles: 24 Miles Hosted by the Chain Gang
January 4
@ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Chain Gang Skills Clinic, With Studio-Library Loop
24 Miles, Mostly flat
Meet: 8:00 AM
Ride-Out: 8:30 AM
Rain Cancels
Join the Chain Gang for a Bike Skills Clinic to learn the basics of your bicycle, how to ride your bike safely and efficiently, how to ride with others in a group, and a quick intro to climbing and descending. We will meet at our usual spot in Merry Go Round Parking Lot 3 (the lower lot near the playground) and start with a short introduction to your bike, and the basics of starting, stopping, riding, climbing and descending. Then we take our new skills out on the road in the park and around the studio loop to practice the techniques we have learned. All skill levels are welcome – this is a great clinic for learning and practicing the basics and get comfortable on your bike and riding in a group.
All skill levels are welcome! If any ride is too much, we will work with you on making sure you have alternatives to the entire route. You will have a great bike ride. That’s a win! And remember, safety is critical. We will be following all bicycling laws and regulations!
