On Saturday, June 1, Assemblyman Ed Ra (R-Franklin Square) hosted a Bike Rodeo at Garden City Middle School for children ranging from kindergarten through fifth grade. Sponsored by the Garden City Parent Teacher Association (PTA) and facilitated in cooperation with the New York Coalition for Transportation Safety, the event featured bicycle inspections, helmet fit-checks, and skill-building activities where participants practiced riding techniques such as hand signals, lookbacks, and braking.
"Every year, this event is a great opportunity to give our youth the knowledge and tools to bike safely. It’s wonderful to see the kids learn and gain confidence in their biking abilities. Events like these not only teach essential safety skills but also promote healthy, active lifestyles. I’m grateful to all who came out to participate, the Garden City PTA and the New York Coalition for Transportation Safety for their support in making this event a success," said Ra.
