Learn to bike in Keene, NH?

Look at the League of American Bicyclists’ website. Under Education, she will be able to search for League Cycling Instructors in her area. There is contact info on website so she can contact one of them for a one-on-one lesson. She should be riding in less than three hours.

Many colleges have programs or clubs for casual/commuter cyclists.

Thanks for the suggestion! Alas, they have no one listed in her area.

Thanks! I’ll suggest that to her. She’s still not even up to casual/commuter, but perhaps she could find someone in one of those programs or clubs who could teach her how to ride a bicycle in the first place. It still boggles my mind how she managed to get to be this old without ever learning, but since her father (my cousin) is dead, it’s a little late to ask.

I think she needs a weekend trip to DC for a WABA adult learn to ride class.

That would definitely be ideal. But given that she’s a poor college student, I doubt it is happening.

Isn’t that what “aunts” (or mother’s cousins) are for?

Well, except that I’m a poverty stricken old person! LOL

Also, the waiting list for the WABA classes run into the hundreds. She is definitely not the only one.

I don’t know New Hampshire, but if one of those instructors is within hailing distance, they might come to her.

Especially if she arranges a class with more folks — if she’s in college, that might be the place to start. I’m assuming any college in NH has to have an outdoors club…
