The event comes about two months after a Liberty High School student was struck while riding an e-bike. Last year, a boy was also injured after a driver crashed into his e-bike in Menifee.

Participants will be shown how to safely ride their bike or e-bike in the city. Those who participate were asked be able to ride a bike, bring a Department of Transportation (DOT) approved helmet, and their own personal bike or e-bike.

Part of the lesson will include a ride around the Haun Road-New Hub loop to safely apply what participants learned, officials said.

After completing the training and safety ride, all participants will receive a complimentary ice cream from Chick-fil-a.
