Sisters kids learn bike safety
By Jim Cornelius

Somewhere around 75 Sisters children got a bicycle check-up, safety lessons and some safety gear at a Bike Rodeo held at Sisters Elementary School on Sunday, June 23.

The event, sponsored by the Sisters Juvenile Empowerment Team (J.E.T.), made bicycle safety fun.

Bike technician Brad Boyd checked bicycles for proper fit and mechanical condition and made adjustments as necessary. Those who didn't have bike helmets were given a free one, courtesy of the Oregon Department of Transportation.

The young cyclists were taken through a mock-city safety course, where they learned about traffic and safe riding.
