Safe-Bicycling Coach

2


2 per session - Virtual OK - Posted Mar 06, 2018

I will coach you on how to best bicycle through a particular intersection or handle another bicycling problem in detail, up to 15 minutes. You will provide me the road names and/or situation you're having, and we'll Skype/phone/chat about how to handle it--per my training as a League Certified Instructor with the League of American Bicyclists and my experience bicycle commuting.

Training & Qualifications


I am a certified instructor for the League of American Cyclists. I've taught people of all ages urban cycling skills, how to ride with confidence, how to get back on the bike after a long (long, long) time off it, how to ride on the road and on the trail, how to be visible at night, and lots more.

Availability & Preferences


Anytime except early morning

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

About Cindy R

For 30 years I’ve written and edited scientific, high-tech, travel, and news publications as well as fiction. I’ve worked on websites, books, newspapers, and business materials (such as press releases...). I also tutor writing and academics, teach gardening and composting, train urban bicycling skills (League of American Bicyclists certified), and spend a gobsmacking amount of time collecting weird words. It’s enough to make you absquatulate! In addition to my master's in environmental horticulture (plants, ecological sustainability, restoration, and noxious invasive weeds), I have a bachelor’s in communications and am trained in numerous avocations. I was a Master Gardener for more than a decade and still give talks there; am still a Master Composter/Sustainability Steward with Tilth Alliance; studied flute with the principal flutist of the Metropolitan Opera; and taken classes in--egads!--everything from landscaping to kitchen-knife skills to sea kayaking to scuba diving. For fun, I'm into edible gardening (especially perennial edibles), knitting, my dog, bicycling, reading, and surfing the Oxford English Dictionary Online. Try me! I’m sure we’ll find something to chat about—and maybe trade. show more
