I hope they can keep the casualties to a minimum in those rides to the parks.

[relictele]

They can’t read or add, but they are fantastic at kick-outs and curb-jumps.

[SampleMan]

In 3rd grade, they teach them how to steal bikes.

[DungeonMaster]

You should see what sons of Obama do to bicycles that they’ve acquired.

[gaijin]

Ridiculous.

Thats your DAD`S job.

Disgusting.

[Mears]

They can’t read or do simple math but they are learning to ride bikes??????????????????

Astonishing.

[Michigander222]

feed, indoctrinate, teach bike riding,. Too bad schools dont teach.

[DaxtonBrown]

Can you spell Libility? With a capital L!

[Opinionated Blowhard]

I don’t mind kids riding bikes in gym class. But I have this sneaking suspicion that this is just a way for the school to buy a bunch of bikes and give them away to the kids.

[YourAdHere]

Makes sense. You can’t steal a bike without riding it.

[TexasCajun]

Strange, my father taught me.

[BitWielder1]

I don't think this is particularly bad, it's good that kids know how to bicycle as well as understand traffic laws.
Since this is DC however, I can't help but suspect they may be training the next generation of anti-car activists.

You are way too worried. They would never let kids learn the way we learned...far too dangerous... When they say bikes, they mean this...

BUBBLE BIKE - For kids in our bubble wrap world.

[ladyjane]

Tax dollars at work.

Sheesh - when I was a kid we’d go to the top of Heartbreak Hill, sit on a bike, and the other kids would push the bike till it rolled down the hill at 20 mph

Of course we’d all crash at the bottom but we learned to ride very quickly.

[CommerceComet]

If they can’t pass that class, they can take a remedial class titled: How to Fall Off a Log.

[WMarshal]

Now this we need, drive-by shootings done on bicycles will save fuel and therefor the planet. White-devil crackers be rapin’ the planet! /sarc

[Magnum44]

Ok son, your ready to go to school now....

[UCANSEE2]

So... when is the government going to take over changing baby diapers ?

[wolfman23601]

It least they still have PE. Other than the massive expense to taxpayers for the bikes, I don’t have a problem with it.

[nascarnation]

Saw an article in the WSJ couple weeks ago.

Was surprised how many millenials can’t ride a 2-wheel bike or swim.

50 years ago that number was almost zero.

[NoExpectations]

Prepare the next generation for the managed decline when no one will be able to afford cars.
