After three days of classroom instruction and three days of blacktop drills, the final three days are street rides in the neighborhood which are still teaching opportunities. For the street rides, extra LCIs are hired and each leads a group along with volunteer riders from the school community and local bike clubs.
Today we were one volunteer short, so Elle handled the red group on her own and stayed on the bike trail in the park which begins right outside the back gate of the school. I got to ride with Jeff’s yellow group. Yay!
I must add how freaking hot it was. The blacktop drills were the worst. On the street riding days, at least you were moving through the air – somewhat of a relief.
