2 INTRODUCTIONS MODERATOR Victoria Custodio, MPH, Project Coordinator, California Safe Route to School Technical Assistance Resource Center SPEAKERS Daniella Alcedo, Pomona Valley Bicycle Coalition Tana Ball, Executive Director, Youth Educational Sports, Inc. Jim Shanman, Founder, Walk n Rollers 2
3 WHY REACH TEENS WITH BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN EDUCATION More young adults are choosing bicycling instead of driving. Americans age are driving less due to the high cost of driving, and a greater interest in personal fitness and environmental stewardship. At the same time, in California, bicycle injury collisions have increased by 11.6% from to The most recent 3-year period for which the California Department of Public Health has nonfatal hospitalization data indicates that year olds have the highest rates of hospitalization due to injuries sustained as a bicycling. The need for targeted intervention is clear! 3
4 WHY REACH TEENS WITH BICYCLE EDUCATION New Teen Culture: Fixed Gear Bikes Mid-Night Rides Scavenger Rides Best place to reach teens is at school and to create program sustainability! We hope that the participants take from this Session a new approach and avenue to reach teens; by providing a healthy life-skill activity; educate safe road behavior and future adult bicycle advocates; all the while appealing to their found culture.. 4
5 Ten good reasons why bicycling should be a sport offered as a Physical Education Unit: 1. Bicycling needs a safe venue to practice the sport instead of learning the sport on the streets. 2. Bicycling is a life sport that any individual can actively participate in for the rest of their lives. 3. Bicycling is the only sport that is a form of transportation for either short to long distances. 4. Bicycling can prevent and reduce youth obesity. 5. Bicycling is a physically friendly sport, low impact, good for developing young bodies. 6. Bicycling is the best cross training for other popular cardiovascular school sports. 7. Bicycling is a sport that ranges from recreation for the whole family to Olympic competition. 8. Bicycling is an alternative to driving a car. 9. Bicycling is an effective alternative to high gas prices from driving a car and will improve air quality. 10.Bicycling can use existing school facilities to stage practices and competition/tournaments. 5
