Bike Rodeo

Bike rodeos are designed to help children who already know how to ride develop safety skills under the guidance of veteran cyclists. Youth are given an opportunity to learn real-life bicycle handling skills that enable them to safely ride in neighborhood areas: braking, balancing, basic road rules, and how to handle obstacles. Children must have a helmet to partcipate. Free helmets for kids (while supplies last) are provided by Proteus Bike Shop. Please bring own bike or scooter, limited number of bikes will be available for use during event. This event is co-sponsored by the City of Greenbelt Recreation Department, Greenbelt Police Department, Beltway Plaza, Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, Paradyme Management and Proteus Bike Shop.

Interested in traveling west to Bethesda, but flummoxed by the closure of the Georgetown Branch Trail for purple line construction? Join Millie this Columbus Day as she demonstrates her favorite work-around. Some comfort riding in traffic will be needed, though a lot of the route will be on trails. Be prepared for a few significant hills - both going up and coming back down. There will be a stop for a light meal in Georgetown - bring hydration/snacks. Expect an average pace of 11-13 mph. No drop, but be prepared with a metro card/cash/credit card just in case. Approximately 45 miles. Depart Proteus at 9am.
