Children ages 5-12 are invited to bring their bicycles and helmets, along with their parent(s), to participate in the 3rd Annual Safety Bike Rodeo, scheduled from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturday, May 7 at the Adel City Hall parking lot, 301 S. 10th St., Adel. The event is organized by the Rotary Club of Adel and the Adel Police Department to promote safe bicycle-riding habits and to reduce accidents involving children. This come-and-go event is free and offers interactive activities for children, free giveaways and a drawing for prizes.
Bikes will be inspected and helmets checked for fit before children receive safety instruction and ride through the course. If the child does not have a bike helmet, a loaner helmet will be fitted to use during the event. Adults may also bring their bikes and helmets for inspection.
