Family Biking Lunch and Learn
Tuesday, April 15, 2pm
Join GO Santa Cruz and Ecology Action for a Family Biking Lunch and Learn on Tuesday, April 15, at noon at the Civic Auditorium or virtually via Zoom. For in-person attendees, lunch from Pizzeria La Buffala is on us!
Of all the barriers people face to biking, issues related to riding with kids usually land at the top of the list. How early can you get your kiddo on a bike with you? What are the different ways you can carry your kids or ride with them? Is a cargo bike better than a trailer? With a bit of preparation, we’re confident that you can successfully navigate the childcare, school, work, errand and extracurricular point-to-point action by bike.
Kid tested, parent approved. As more families head out by bike, there are a lot of options to consider. We’ll help you navigate the how-to’s of riding with children.
In this workshop, Ecology Action staff will guide you through the many options for family biking. Topics will include gear, family testimonials, riding through the developmental stages, and recommendations for riding with kids safely, conveniently, and having fun along the way. Find out how parents and caregivers are replacing the minivan with the bike and why kids can’t seem to get enough. We’ll also cover all of the GOSC benefits available to you including commute rewards, discounted Bcycle memberships, and e-bike rebates.
FREE BIKE LIGHTS AND HELMETS AVAILABLE FOR ALL ATTENDEES*
