- Why sharing the road is the safest alternative for both motorists and bicyclists
- What’s legal and what’s not legal, for both motorists and bicyclists
- Common crashes and how to avoid them
- Why bicyclists “take the lane” and what motorists should do in response
- How to navigate bicycle related infrastructure such as sharrows and bike lanes.
