intro to bikes Print
Written by Amy- Roxburgh   

On the 13th of October I had the class intro to bikes. In this class we learnt about how to maintain a bike. We also learned how to use the attack position while going downhill. My friend Tyson and I had some great fun. We had the funniest time while learning about the attack position, because we had to ride over to pieces of wood and I almost fell over!!  After we did a few exercises that helped us use our brakes and which gears would help us more while going uphill or downhill, we then went for a little ride around the campus. While doing this we rode uphill. This was hard for me because I’m really bad at going uphill! But later on everyone had a laugh when we played the slow race, we had to race to the line but the slowest person wins. I came second in the first round and third in the second round. But overall it was a great class.
