Are you sure I can learn to ride in 3 hours?

Our Adult Learn to Ride classes are broken down into safe, easy to follow steps. Instructors will work with you to offer tailored feedback and guidance to improve your practice. As with any new skill, different people will progress at their own pace.

Can I bring my own bike?

We recommend that participants use the bicycles provided during class. The bikes we use are properly sized for each participant and are in good working order. WABA does not offer on site bike maintenance for personal bikes.

What should I bring with me to class?

Water, closed-toed shoes, athletic clothing, appropriate outerwear, snacks, and sunscreen!

I learned to ride! Now what?

Check out a Basic Skills Clinic or a Trail Riding Basics class.
