LEARN-TO-RIDE: For persons who were not able to ride a bicycle, this program offered a chance to learn in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment. For many people, learning to ride a bike not only released them from dependence on public transportation, but also offered new health benefits. Classes were held in several locations in Minneapolis and St Paul, and participants hailed from all over the Twin Cities, with the majority identifying as female or persons of color.
