LOCAL MOTION/RISEVT BIKE TRAILER

Each year St. Albans City School is fortunate to be loaned a trailer full of bicycles for our students to learn on. Local Motion and RiseVT are two organizations that partner to promote walking and biking throughout our state. One way they do this is offering biking opportunities at no cost to our students. We have the trailer for two weeks and our PE teachers devote a whole learning module to safe and fun bicycle use. Here is a LINK TO 11 PICTURES from the first day of riding this year. There will be more pictures in the coming days.
