In FY23, we have received several bike class requests through the Bike Class Form on the Bike at Illinois website: https://bike.illinois.edu/safety/bike-classes/. We will organize classes in FY24 based on this data:
The second idea we wanted to pursue was putting on the TS 101 courses. The normal cost that Cynthia charges is $65 per person. We thought we could contract with CCB $400 or $500 to do a full day lunch provided TS101 training for 10-15 people. It would be offered to students and staff who wanted to learn more about safety and promised to be a safety advocate. This would save money over the total cost of training and allow a larger group of folks receive serious safety training. - James Roedl
In order to gauge demand in existing and new classes, we have created a Bicycle Class Request Form so that students, employees and community members can request new opportunities to learn more about bicycles. The form link appears when an existing bicycle class registration is already full, so that we can estimate how many additional people tried to register for classes that have reached maximum capacity. The form can also be used to suggest new bicycle safety or mechanics classes.
