The Albany Police Activities League (APAL) will once again host a Bicycle Rodeo on a Saturday, May 14 at Cornell Elementary School. The goal of this fun and free event is to encourage riders to wear helmets on every ride, to give young cyclists basic skills for on-road riding, and to teach them the rules of the road to help keep them safe. A free bicycle helmet will be given to the first 100 youth participants. Activities also include a bicycle confidence course and spectacular entertainment by Pete Brandt, flatland stunt rider. The focus of this rodeo is on young riders in elementary and middle school.
