Cycling Savvy - Cycling Education


CyclingSavvy is a program of American Bicycling Education Association, Inc, ABEA. It was developed by former League Cycling Instructors Keri Caffrey and Mighk Wilson.

The founders recognized that because fear of cycling in traffic is the greatest hindrance to cycling and bicycle transportation, the greatest need was a thorough adult traffic cycling course. We reasoned other cycling topics, such as bike fit and mechanical skills can be learned via the web or through books or local bike shops, but traffic cycling absolutely requires the social and experiential aspects only found through face-to-face and real-world instruction.

Learn more about CyclingSavvy offerings here.  They have what is probably the best online bicycle riding course available and also offer classes similar to those taught by the League of American Bicyclists.
