About This Activity
Description
This Earn-A-Bike program is designed for middle and high school students who want to build confidence, skills, and friendships through biking. During this week-long program, you’ll take part in hands-on activities and group rides on neighborhood streets while learning essential bicycle safety, handling, and maintenance skills. You’ll practice fixing a flat tire, riding safely in a group, and performing basic bike care. Along the way, you’ll gain independence and teamwork skills—both on and off the bike—while connecting with other teens in a fun, supportive environment. At the end of the session, you’ll earn a brand-new bike, helmet, lock, and lights to keep! All skill levels are welcome. If you don’t yet know how to ride, we’ll schedule a Learn to Ride class before your session begins. All equipment is provided by Walk N Roll. For more information, please email walknroll@intercitytransit.comIf you have already participated in a Teens Biking to Destinations program, you cannot take the class again, but you can reach out to walknroll@intercitytransit.com to apply to be a student helper. Teens Biking to Destinations (TBD) is part of Cascade's Statewide School-Based Bicycle Education Program and is supported by the Washington State Department of Transportation, with funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act (CCA). The CCA supports Washington’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and-invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution, creating jobs, and improving public health. Information about CCA is available at climate.wa.gov.
