About Traffic Skills 101
TS 101 is a day long course consisting of approximately 4 hours in class and 4 hours outside, split between skill drills and an on-road ride. Among other things, you will practice starting, stopping, shifting and scanning, learn how to ride in traffic, including proper lane and intersection positioning, and crash avoidance techniques. You will practice all that you learn on brief road course. Successful completion of this course is a prerequisite for taking the League Certified Instructor course and other advanced league cycling courses.

The course is offered rain or shine, and will include outdoor segments unless the weather is severe.  We will ride in drizzle, but not in a t-storm.
