  • October 27 2015 – The Stanford School of Medicine Health Improvement Program offers a class in “Safe & Confident Autumn/Winter Bicycling” for South Bay bike commuters. This class is for fair-weather bike commuters and recreational riders interested in tips for continuing to enjoy bicycling in colder weather, with shorter daylight hours, and/or when rain is predicted. Knowing how to dress for Bay Area winter weather and outfit your bike for drizzle and darkness can help you keep fit year-round. We’ll cover safety and basic commuting skills with photos and video, model clothing options for staying warm and dry, and demonstrate a variety of effective lights for your bike and helmet. There will be optional goal-setting for those who’d like to get started making a change within the next month. Bring questions and learn from two knowledgeable instructors. Instructors are League Cycling Instructor John Ciccarelli, League Cycling Instructor, and Jane Rosten, LCSW, HIP Coordinator of Environmental Behavior Change. For more information and to register, click through to Stanford’s class search page and enter the class code “bike-03” in the search box. I couldn’t figure out if there’s permalink for this, sorry.
