Children also learn to always look out for cars and to ride on the footpath whenever possible. Riders 16 and under are allowed to ride on the footpath, as well as adults who are riding with children.
If they are on the road, the program encourages children to always ride on the side of the road.
The workshop stopped in Boggabilla and Toomelah on Tuesday and will move on to Wee Waa, Narrabri and back to Boggabilla for the rest of this week.
