We all like to ride, but when was the last time you took the time to practice your bike handling skills? This week we’re asking you to find a safe space and practice a skill. Whether it’s cyclo-cross dismounts and remounts, track stands or even if you’re not as confidant as you feel you ought to be at stopping quickly in an emergency; any riding skill goes.

To be entered to win a $50 gift card for a locally owned business, go and practice your skill and tell us about it afterwards. This could be in the form of a comment or a picture or video. We want detail though, doing a regular ride and telling us “I was practicing riding in the drops” won’t cut it without some proper description!

Post under the event on our Facebook page or if you’re not on Facebook email your entry to miva.peter@gmail.com. The winner will be drawn at random from the successful entries. You must be a current MIVA member to win.
