SPOKES Program

The SPOKES program, open to 6th-8th graders, teaches essential bicycle safety, traffic laws, and basic bike maintenance through a hands-on, 6-week course. Upon completing the program, participants receive a BMX bike, helmet, bike lock, and toolkit to support their continued safe riding. SPOKES empowers students with the skills and equipment to confidently navigate their community by bike.

Thank you for a successful program in the Spring of 2025! We are looking forward to implementing the SPOKES program during Spring 2026 with the students of Hoover Community School.
