SUMMARY:Biking with Toddlers Clinic
CONTACT:Erin Costello
DESCRIPTION:Biking with Toddlers Clinic\nDo you have a bike? Do you know a
  toddler? Do you want to bike with that toddler?! Of course you do! Join 
 us for a Biking with Toddlers Clinic to learn the basic skills needed to 
 ride with a little passenger\, and to practice those skills in a safe\, 
 supportive\, and car-free environment. \n\nBring your own bike\, toddler\,
  and passenger carry system\, or practice with one of ours! The bike 
 systems that will be available to practice with include: 1) road bike with
  rear rack mount child seat\, 2) cargo e-bike with rear rack mount child 
 seat\, 3) road bike with front mount child seat\, and 4) tow behind 
 trailer. \n\nPlease bring your own safety equipment. Oregon law requires 
 everyone under the age of 16 to wear a helmet while riding a bike.\n\nThis
  clinic is for everyone interested in biking with littles. Have you always
  wanted to bike with your little one and don’t know where to start? Have 
 you been debating which passenger system is right for you? Are you 
 intimidated by the thought of biking on the mean streets of Portland? Are 
 you an avid toddler-toting cyclists looking to build community with other 
 toddler-toters? This clinic is for you!\n\nThe Biking with Toddlers Clinic
  will cover:\n1.	Making sure the passenger carry system is secure on the 
 bike. \n2.	Practicing loading and unloading the passenger from the carry 
 system.\n3.	Making sure the passenger is secure in the harness. \n4.	
 Making sure the helmet is secure on the passenger.\n5.	Traffic safety 
 information and rules for biking on roads.\n6.	Practicing biking with 
 passengers in a car free zone.\n7.	Optional slow roll ride through the 
 neighborhood for those comfortable riding on shared bike route streets. 
 \n\nIf you know a toddler*\, you know that the best made plans don’t 
 always go… as…. planned…. This clinic will be held at Rose City Park 
 Elementary School\, so if you or your toddler need to take a break and
