Safety & Education

Bike to the Future has developed a safety & education course that is based on the Canadian Cycling Association's Can-Bike program.

As of May 2010, Dave Elmore, Curt Hull, and Jeremy Hull have passed the Can-Bike II instructors exam, so they are now qualified to teach Can-Bike I and Can-Bike II courses.

Any workplaces or BttF members who are interested in taking a Can-Bike I or Can-Bike II course (or who are interested in becoming a qualified Can-Bike I instructor) should contact us.

Dave, Curt, and Jeremy can also bring other potential cycling safety instructors up to the Can-Bike II level so that the new instructor is then qualified to teach a Can-Bike I course. We hope to expand the pool of instructors from the current 3 to at least 10 to 12.
