Accepting Registrations for CAN-BIKE 2 Course!
0 comments at 4:31 pm posted by Alex H
EBC is offering a Canadian Cycling Association CAN-BIKE 2 Course in late July of this year. CAN-BIKE 2 is an 18 hour, on-road cycling course. The course covers the theory of on-road cycling and practical riding techniques starting on quiet roads and working up to more complex situations. The course is suitable to all cyclists who feel comfortable on their bicycles and want to learn more about cycling safely and efficiently in traffic. This course will improve your skill and confidence in riding in challenging traffic situations. CAN-BIKE 1 is not a pre-requisite for CAN-BIKE 2. This certificate course is quite often a requirement for jobs that involve cycling.
The course will run two Tuesdays, July 20th and 27th from 6:00 to 9:00 PM, as well as two Saturdays, July 24th and 31st from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Course fees are $80 and you can either borrow or purchase (approximately $35) the course manual, Effective Cycling by John Forester (http://www.amazon.com/Effective-Cycling-6th-John-Forester/dp/0262560704)
For more information or to register, contact John Collier at 780.433.1270 or .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
