About
Want to experience the joys of biking but haven't gotten around to learning? Now is your chance! This class, held on Mason’s Fairfax Campus in Parking Lot C, is for those who have not learned to ride and are ready to learn now.
The Fairfax Alliance for Better Bicycling (FABB) team of certified instructors will teach you the basics as you learn at your own pace. Our goal is to help you balance and progress you into using pedals as you are ready. You must be at least 18 years old to attend the class and will be asked to sign a waiver before participating.
Bikes and helmets will be provided. During registration, you will be asked for your height so that we can try to have a bike available that fits you; however, we cannot guarantee bike availability in your size.

Equipment Provided: Bicycle and helmet rental
Cost: $10 for GMU students, faculty, and staff; $85 for others
