Rich, we’re in the same boat you are. To help us get started, two of our mechanics attended League of American Bicyclists’ Road Safety 101 classes to learn how they’re structured and what materials they use. We’re considering moving forward with LCI certifications for both, because such things sound good when you’re pitching your services to church and school groups.
I’m interested to see what other groups are doing.

Hey All,
Our EAB program is almost 7 years old. Over the years we've gotten pretty good at teaching bike mechanics to our EABers but we fall short when it comes to teaching riding skills. One of my goals for this year is to institute a riding component to the program.
Are any of you teaching riding skills as part of your EAB or Build a Bike programs? If so we'd love to hear how you do it.
Ride On!
