Bike Skills

 Hey bloggers!

 On the twenty third of November, Hauraki had their bike skills lesson. There were two instructors named Holly and Shell. First they gave us helmets and we put them on. After that we got split into two groups and did a few laps of the court on our bikes. Next Holly put some cones out and we had to zigzag around them. We all said it was so easy so she put all the cones on the ground. Then it started to get challenging. After we played a game called the Box Game. It was a game where you ride around in a circle and try to stay in the box and avoid other players. And the area kept on getting smaller. We played a few rounds. Next, Holly taught us the ABCD checklist. A stands for air in the tyre. B stands for brakes. C stands for control. And D stands for drop test. Also we do a quick release test. After that we did a turtle race. It was to see if you could get to the finish line the slowest. 

In our second session, we learned some road signals like left, right and stop. Next we did a game called follow the leader and we did it on the field. Next we played another game called figure of eight. We had to keep riding in a eight shape. It was pretty hard. At the end we played a giant Box game. 

I think that day was really fun  because we learnt hand signals and played lots of fun games too.
