Route Planning & Wayfinding
Are you intimidated by Raleigh's network of bike infrastructure or the thought of having to navigate a sprawling city by bike? We're here to help! Join us for an interactive workshop to learn the nuances of different route-making platforms, discuss what defines a "good" route for you personally, and tackle some route-making exercises as a group. Bringing a laptop or cell phone is recommended, but not required!
Don't Pollute the Commute
In this commuting workshop, we'll review types of gear that can make bike commuting a breeze, how to take your bike on a bus or train, and behaviors that can keep you safe on roads with drivers. Finally, we'll go on a short group commute from Dix to downtown to test out our skills! Bring your bike and helmets.
