Castro Valley Adult School graduated four students from the nine week, 18 hour Road Cycling program. The students learned bike mechanics and repair, vehicular cycling skills, and to make their own nifty bike gadgets. The focus of the program is to provide personal one-on-one cycling coaching while on the road cycling every class. The progressive nature of the class builds on each meeting allowing students to practice at home, and to develop physical conditioning to go on longer and more challenging outings.
An initial assessment of each student posted an average cycling skills of 20%. Upon completion of the program the lowest cycling skills score was 96%. The long-term behaviors learned in this class showed an improvement of over four and a half times. As the students have said, “I have a lot more confidence”.
Graduates: Marilyn Walker, Jeanne Moncada, Karen Lee, Suzie Yun.
