Lessons for adults, whether you’re getting on a bike for the first time or you can ride but busy streets make you nervous. Many are free.
Green Streets Initiative is a Massachusetts nonprofit that has helped people walk, bike and take transit more since 2006.
An instructor from the Bicycle Riding School rides with you on real streets, at your own pace. Practice the turns and intersections that worry you. Green Streets is covering the cost.
For people who live in Somerville, Cambridge, Medford, Arlington, Belmont, Watertown, Malden, Everett, Chelsea, Winchester and nearby parts of Boston.
