Bike Walk Nebraska provides free, two-hour classes for older teens (15 years or older) and adults eager to learn or re-learn how to ride a bicycle. Our classes are designed to teach you how to ride a bike, including balancing, steering, and braking, and provides all the materials necessary. 

The hands-on curriculum utilizes step-through bikes for accessibility and familiarity to the bikes utilized by Heartland Bike Share, Bike LNK, and Valentine Bike Share to familiarize participants with the local bike-share systems. 

Classes In Your Community

Bike Walk Nebraska has classes established in Downtown Omaha and Lincoln, and is looking for other communities who want to champion this programming. Here's a quick overview of what's required to kick off Learn-to-Ride classes in your community:

• Budget & Supplies: Bike Walk Nebraska provides the curriculum, materials, gear, and class funding.
• Infrastructure: Year-round storage for up to 10 bikes and a 10,000 sq. ft parking lot is required for the class.
• Coordination: Bike Walk Nebraska trains local instructors and co-hosts the first participant class. After that, a local coordinator runs all future courses, and BWN manages registration.
