Limited Adult Classes Available

Our normal maintenance class offerings are over for the season, however we will be offering limited classes throughout the Winter; about once per month. Our normal maintenance class schedule will resume in April 2025.

All Learn to Ride, Essential Biking Knowledge, Basic Cycling Techniques, and Urban Cycling Techniques classes will resume in April 2025.

Otherwise there are a few other places hosting classes right now:

  • Bike Works - an awesome bike non-profit located in Columbia City
  • Sharing Wheels - a community bike shop in Everett offering great beginner maintenance classes
  • The Bikery - a volunteer-run bike space where you can donate to use their fix-it stands and tools. Great for riders who would like to work on their own repairs but would like a guiding hand if they get stuck.
