Los Angeles Bicycle Academy’s "Bicycle Safety, Bicycle Education and Safety Programs" is a comprehensive curriculum designed to teach students to travel safely on a bicycle. Our curriculum recognizes that classes will often be composed of students with varying skill levels. Through a combination of in-class instruction, skill-based activities, and on-the-bicycle training, students will learn the parts of the bicycle, proper helmet and bicycle fitting, traffic rules and regulations, potential hazards when operating a bicycle, and handling skills needed to effectively, appropriately, and safely cycle throughout their community and beyond.

The purpose of the LABA Road Club is to meet youth where they are, the only requirement is a bike and helmet.

We teach and implement the basic riding skills that will boost their confidence on and off the bike.

 Through this process we can identify talent and create a development pipeline for cycling.

This is a fun, experiential earn-and-learn program that introduces youth ages 8-18 to bicycle safety education, bicycle mechanics and maintenance, as well as life lessons!
