Session 2, May 14, 5:30 to 6:30 pm: “Riding Safely on Vermont’s Roads” How should a bicyclist deal with car traffic, loose dogs, sand, railroad tracks and rough roads? Does the law require helmets for children and/or adults? Is side-by-side riding allowed? Is riding on the sidewalk legal? This session will answer these questions and many more about sharing the road safely and legally. An optional, guided bicycle ride will follow the hour in the classroom.
