Cupertino Safe Routes to School is ready for another round of its Middle School Bike Skills program.

This bike safety program, modified to comply with Santa Clara County guidelines and maintain social distance, aims to teach sixth- through eighth-graders to become confident riders by learning the rules of the road, practicing bike handling skills, and participating in a group ride. The program’s goal is to see more students ride their bikes to school.

This Middle School Bike Skills program is run by Wheel Kids and includes an one-hour online interactive bike class for students to learn rules of the road, plus an on-bike, in-person half-day workshop to practice bike skills and go for a group bike ride, all while socially distanced. The online classes are 7-8 p.m.; the in-person workshops are 9 a.m.-noon or 10 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Cupertino Senior Center, 21251 Stevens Creek Blvd. Students need to bring their own bikes and helmets.

Registration fees are $140. Parents are asked to register their students at least four weeks in advance at https://wheelkids.com/msbs-cupertino.

The first workshop dates are Thursday, June 24 and Saturday, June 26. For more information, visit cupertino.org/msbs.
